This is my card today on the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog

using the gorgeous stamp set 

Colorful Cosmos Blooms.

I had a lot of fun with this card.

I used the new Nuvo Shimmer Powders in the colors of

Solar Flare, Green Parade, and Cherry Bomb.

You basically mist your paper with water

(I used watercolor paper)

then lightly and I mean lightly tap the colors on

until you are satisfied with the results.

You can add more water if needed/wanted.

Set it aside to dry of heat dry it.

Once it was dry I used my Tim Holtz Stamp Platform,

 Colorful Cosmos Blooms, Versamark,

and White Detail  embossing powder and stamped onto

my finished Shimmer piece. 

Then I die cut it with Tutti Designs Stitched Scalloped Circles Die.

I wanted to add a bit of sparkle (or a lot of sparkle_

so I die cut a larger 

Tutti Designs Stitched Scalloped Circles Die

and using a Nuvo Glue Pen Large, I ran it around the out edge of the circle.

Then Sprinkled with  Lator Gator glitter.

This was then added to the bottom panel of my stamped shimmer image.

Wanting even more sparkle, I coated the front side of an embossing folder folder

with  Versamark, added my white card stock and ran it thru my Big Shot,

then embossed it with Tequila Sunrise embossing powder.

Using Tonic 12” Guillotine cutter (I LOVE this thing)

I trimmed it to fit my card front.

Once again using Versamark, I embossed the sentiment using Flashy Flamingo.

(don't you just love the names)
