Paper Players#572 & Color Throwdown#674

 Today my card is doing double duty.

I'm joining the  Paper Players Theme Challenge #572 and the current Color Throwdown #674

 

The Paper Players theme was, Make 2022 Sparkle and the Color Throwdown was: Black, Gold and White.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is the card I created for these challenges:

 

 

 Details: Card Base, Basic Black, layered with a piece of white/gold shimmer paper (The Paper Studio).  I also used SU Gold paper for the border and the rectangle die.

 

I added a strip of Basic White card stock as well as the scalloped gold piece.

 

The New Year stamp (retired SU) was stamped with Gold Fire Opal embossing powder (Embossing Arts) on black card stock.  I added 3 black sprinkles (Annabelle Stamps - no longer in business).  I mounted the rectangle with foam tape.

 

This card is very sparkly in real life.  It's just hard to get a good picture of all that sparkle.

 

 

 

A New Years Card

Hello and welcome.  Today I'm sharing the very 1st card I have made in 2014.  A new blogging friend ask me if I'd be willing to make her a New Years card that she could send to a friend who needed some cheering and support after having a rough year in 2013.  Here is what I came up with.

I wanted something fun and colorful.  I got to use up some old scraps as well.

The sentiment is from Amuse Studio.
