Sequin Fridge Magnets - April Release

 April Release

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

I just love making these sequin magnets.

I start by adding alcohol ink to the ceramic tiles.

I spray it with a clear coat so that 

the ink does not run when I had the mod podge.

For this one I used the Gummy Bear Sparkle Blend.

I went with a light green background.

I applied the Mod Podge and added the sequins.

That is it.

Once it dries, I add a magnet to the back 

and it is ready to be displayed!!

The large gummy bear from this blend is great on this magnet!

I also love the great colors in this blend.

Love, Coffee

 Hello! Alison Heikkila here. Are you a big fan of coffee? Well, have I got a new Sparkle Blend for you! The April release from Doodles Paper Playground includes the "Love, Coffee" Sparkle Blend which is very different from any other coffee inspired Blend they've released before.

So, why is this coffee Sparkle Blend unique? First, you'll find life-sized acrylic coffee beans in it, which look so real! Next, there's hints of pink in it....some round sequins, as well as shaped sequins that looks like a frozen coffee drink. In addition to that, you'll find satin gold sequins, which adds a regal touch to this mix.

For this card, I used a heart cover plate die from Memory Box with a brown patterned double sided cardstock. I used some of the hearts that were cut out inside the shaker. I also used a Paper Smooches coffee cup die (with one of those extra hearts front and center). I used ivory and Kraft cardstock for a soft look. Pure white would have been too stark for what I was going for. For the bottom layer of my shaker I inked up the fantastic Houndstooth stamp from Erin Lee Creative with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide, to pull in a little more of the pink from the "Love, Coffee" Sparkle Blend. I cut my super thick foam tape from Pear Blossom Press into thin strips and applied it to my top layer.

I love this full panel shaker card, and I bet you coffee lovers out there would too! Please be sure to visit the Sparkle Blends Shop on Esty to see the all of the available Sparkle Blends, as well as joining the Sparkle Blends Fan Club on Facebook. Thanks so much for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Happy Easter and Happy Birthday!

Happy Easter Everyone! Wishing all that are celebrating a very Happy Easter! Today I am bringing you a Happy Birthday Card that is perfect for celebrating! And I am using the new Neopolitan Sparkle Blend!  Ice cream, sprinkles, sparkles, what could possibly be better!

Have a look at my project!

For this super fun project I am using a mix of supplies from several companies. I am using layering dies from Lawn Fawn, papers, dies and shaker from Queen and Company and Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110# cardstock from CutCardstock for my white layers and card base. I am also using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and Gina K. Connect Glue for my stamping and adhering.

And here is a better look at all the fun shaker elements!

So head over to the Sparkle Blends Shop. Grab your favorites and be sure to check out the whole new release before they are gone! And as always, take a look on the Doodles Paper Playground blog, Facebook page and in the Sparkle Blends Fan Club on Facebook to see all the fun things going on!
