New Sparkle & Shine challenge

Hey everyone, it's the 15th which means that it is time for the new challenge over on the Sparkle & Shine challenge blog. This one is all about fall, halloween, sparkle and pumpkins. I chose to use an older Papertrey Ink stamp set that hasn't seen some love from me in a while Friendship Jar and Friendship Jar Fall Fillers.

What's difficult to see in the above photo is that all of the pumpkins have some shimmer on them where I used a Wink of Stella pen on them, hopefully you can see it better in the photo below.

Sparkle & Shine Challenge Fifteen

Happy 1st of October!!! This means that it is time for another challenge on the Sparkle & Shine challenge blog. For this challenge the sponsor is Pretty Pink Posh. All you need to do is make a card using the inspiration photo and enter it in the provided link at the bottom of this post HERE and you will be eligible to win the $25 gift certificate for Pretty Pink Posh (lots of great sequins and dies!).

Here is the card that I made, it's a little bright and vibrant!!!

This card came about because I had received some new Color Burst pigment powders and was messing around with them. I loved the way they all blended together! The leaves are actually the remnants from the card that I made for the last challenge at Sparkle & Shine!

I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder first and then applied the pigments over the top. My favorite part is the little speckles down at the bottom.

Here is the inspiration photo that is being used for this challenge...fun one right?!


Head on over to the Sparkle & Shine blog and join in on the fun! Don't forget, there is this up for grabs...
