Autumn Sparkle...

Happy Thursday! DT  Carolyn here sharing my most recent make. Today I am sharing a sparkly fall card.
I am so excited to be on this team and work with all the wonderful sparkle blends. Who doesn't love a little sparkle!

For this card, I used my electronic cutter and cut out a maple leaf shape to highlight the Sparkle Blend Be-Leaf in Yourself. This blend is perfect for Fall and all things colorful. You can find the blend in the White Rose Crafts store.

To finish my card I used Distress Ink pads to rub a little color into the leaves and the leaf shapes using the Distress Inks dauber in a circular motion. The colors I used are Carved Pumpkin, Dried Marigold and Ripe Persimmon and Aged Mahogany. I used pop up dots on the leafs for a little dimension and I used layering cardstock to print and cut on. 

Don't forget to stop by the FaceBook page and the blog for new and fun sparkly inspiration from the design team. Have a crafty day!

Love Ya a Latte

Hello! Alison here. I am back with a new shaker card and one of the newest Sparkle Blends from Doodles Paper Playground. There are six brand new Blends and you can check them all out HERE. For my shaker, I was really inspired by the Gingerbread Man Sparkle Blend.

I knew immediately that I wanted to pair the Blend with the new Thanks a Latte stamp set from Lawn Fawn. I stamped the cups on Kraft cardstock and carefully cut the inside of the cups with an X-Acto Knife and and created my shaker window.

I used a couple of Rectangle Dies from Gina Marie Designs to cut my shaker panel and background paper (from the Lawn Fawn Perfectly Plaid "Chill" 6x6" Pad) The images were colored with Tombow Dual Brush Markers. The Gingerbread Man Sparkle Blend is perfect for filling these cups with "coffee" or "hot cocoa." It's a great assortment of chocolate and gold colored sequins, a bit of cream, and lots of different sized glitter sequins.

I added just a few snowflake sequins from the Snow Cool Sparkle Blend for the main part of the card. The finished card is great for a guy or a gal pal. The colors are cool but comfy, and I just adore the Gingerbread Man Sparkle Blend.

That's it for me today. There will be lots of amazing projects this month featuring the new Sparkle Blends, so be sure to visit us here again! To shop for any of the Sparkle Blends, please visit the White Rose Crafts LLC store. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

October Sparkle Blends Release

It's every Doodle Fan's favorite time! 

That's right, its release day & even better, its Holiday Release Day!

This month I played with creating some versatile holiday themed blends that I think can be used year round by removing one or two elements on an as needed basis.

It's time to give you what you really came here for, so without further adieu:

the October 2018 Sparkle Blends release!
