Kelli here today bringing you a really quick and simple card made using patterned paper and  pre made frames!  Of course there are Sparkle Blends involved, I mean come on!!!  What's life without sparkle!!!!

I got these frames in a RAK but they are from Heidi Swap so I am sure you can still find them or some like them!!  I know that White Rose Crafts LLC has several frame choices!!The sparkle blends used are  Rosey Gold, Ocean View and Peacock Pizzaz!!  I just thought they all went well with the colors in the papers!!!  Now Ocean View is no longer available but you can substitute it with Aquamarine!!!  I am super sorry about that, I didn't realize it was gone until after I got the card together!!!  That's how fast these blends go peeps!!!  So don't hesitate in getting them!!!  The patterned paper line is from Authentique and is from the Radiant Collection! 

Limited Edition Sparkle Blends can only be found at White Rose Crafts LLC.  They also have a lot of other things you really really want!!! 

? Texting Flowers?

No not really....  I mean you can text flowers you really can!!!🌻🌺🌼🌷🌸🌹 See!!  LOL. I know,  I know I am a bit silly, ok maybe a lot silly but you still like me!!!!

Today's project is the last made using up the supplies from RAKs and swaps!!!  That makes me super sad but also super happy that I had the items to use in the first place!!!

Why texting flowers?  Well the patterned paper has flowers and text in the background!!  So why not!!

I just thought it was cute paper to use!!!  I am sure I will be using it more in the future!! The paper is from the Authentique Radiant Collection and the sparkle blends, well of course that is FLOWER POWER!!  I do believe it is one of my favorites!!!  I may be that I was a child of the 70's but it could be that I just like flowers and lots of colors!!!  

Head over to White Rose Crafts LLC to pick up your limited edition sparkle blends!!!

Butterflies

 It seems like I love Mondays!!!! 😀. Today I have another simple card for you using up some things from a RAK!!

I love getting RAK packages or swap packages but there comes a point in time where I actually have to use what I get or there won't be any room for me to get into my crafting room!!!  😂😂

Today I made a card using a frame I received and some more paper from that Authentique Radiant Collection!!!

Oh the sparkles!!!  I love the sparkles!!!  Today I am using 3 DPP sparkle blends!!!  I am using Rosey Gold, Mardi Gras Parade, and Peacock Pizzaz!!! 

Hurry over to White Rose crafts LLC to get your Limited Edition Sparkle Blends!!!!

You and Coffee

Happy Anniversary to me!!! Oh and my Husband of course!!!!

Hey everyone, Today I am here with an Anniversary Card I made for my husband.  Today is our 25th Wedding Anniversary!  I personally think that is awesome!!!  If you know us personally you know that we are not lovey dovey people, we are quite sarcastic people, especially to each other...  So this year I made him a card showing that!!!  I used the Cafe Au Lait Sparkle blend for this card because it was perfect, not only because I am a Louisiana girl but because I have an obsession with coffee!  Like  a serious one!!!

Here is the card I made... it is monochromatic in brown, because COFFEE!!!!

I again made the frame using the frame punch board.  The background is made using stamps from Tim Holtz Mini Fresh Brewed set and stamped in Archival ink Potting Soil!  The sentiment is from the Coffee and Tea stamp set from SSS. 

Look at all of that!!!  Isn't it just yummy!!! 

Here is the sarcastic part!!!  I mean I do love him more than coffee, just barely, but I do!!!! 

Remember that you can only get these limited edition sparkle blends at WRC LLC!!!

Happy Easter

Kelli here today with a quick Easter card just in case you still need one!!!  I used two new sparkle blends from this months release on this card.  Easter Basket and Springtime.  They were just made to be used together!!!

I used paper from the Cottontail Collection by BoBunny. It's perfect for spring and easter!   The frame I made for my shaker section was made using the We R Memory Keepers frame punch board. 

Look at that sequins y'all!   I mean just look, bunnies, flowers, glitter!!!!  😍😍

Remember you can only find these limited edition sparkle blends at White Rose Crafts LLC! 

Happy Everything

Hello everyone, Kelli here today with a card featuring two new sparkle blends from this months release.  They are Sunshine and Emerald (May Birthstone)!  They are so super awesome!!!  Emerald is a favorite of mine, not only because it's my favorite stone but because my oldest daughter and son-in-love both have birthdays in May!

I made my card using scraps of paper left over from a 6x6 paper pad from Bo Bunny called Something Splendid.  I then made a frameless shaker using left over packaging plastic.

To be honest I snuck some Aquamarine sparkle blends in there too!!!  SHHHH don't tell anyone!!  😉. I then stamped my sentiment on another scrap of paper left from the same pad and cut the banner shape.  The sentiment and banner are from a stamp set from MayMay Made It, called Happy.

Fairy Dust

Hey Guys,  I know it's been a while.  I hurt myself a while back and I am super grateful to Amber and the Doodles team for giving me the time I needed to heal!!!  I am not 100% yet but so much better than I was!!!  So on to the project!!!!

Today I am sharing a Mini album I made using just 1 sheet of 12 x 12 cardstock and some G45 patterned paper!  The closure is a belly band I made that is all shaker!!!

Here is the mini album.  The G45 paper line is called Fairy Dust and I got mine from White Rose Crafts llc.    The size of my album is 4x4 and it is the perfect size for a brag book!!!

Here is the front of the album with the belly band removed.  I used the Rosey Gold sparkle blend as well as the Intergalatic sparkle blend! 

Here is the mini album opened up with tuck spots and pockets and flaps, and yes its only one sheet of 12 x 12!!!

Here is the back of the album!!!  

Remember that you can only find these limited edition sparkle blends at White Rose Crafts LLC!

Let me know if you want a quick video tutorial for how to make this!!!

Ordinary Miracles

Hey guys, today I am sharing a card I made using the Majestic Sparkle Blend from Doodles Paper Playground!   

I cut a panel out of the 12 x 12 paper and fussy cut around the flowers leaving a 1/2 in border.  I then made a sandwich of acetate sheets with the Majestic blend in it and added the cut out panel on top.  I wanted the card to be see through. 

I also wanted it to be an easel card so when the recipient got it she could display it and it would look, in my opinion, cool!!!  lol. Sorry for the glare.  I added a banner sticker from the collections sticker sheet for the easel stopper part of the card!  

I hope you enjoy my card today!  Remember you can find sparkle blends exclusively at White Rose Crafts LLC!!!  Head on over there and pick up these limited edition blends before they are gone!!! Also remember to check out Doodles Paper Playground for more fun and exciting ideas on how to use sparkle blends on your projects!!! 

Birthday Luck

Hey guys, Today I have a card featuring the Good Luck Charm Sparkle Blend.  This limited edition blend is awesome and you can only get it at White Rose Crafts! 

Here is the card I made...

I love the colors in this blend!  I used my scan n cut 2 again to cut out the shaker portion of the card.  I added two different colors of green and white twine to the card and adhered a horse shoe from the blend to the middle of the bow!  

Remember to head over to White Rose Crafts LLC to pick up this and other limited edition sparkle blends!!! 

Birthday In Blue

Hey guys, Today I have a card featuring the Aquamarine Sparkle Blend.  This limited edition blend is awesome and you can only get it at White Rose Crafts! 

Here is the card I made... 

I cut the shaker portion out on my Scan N Cut 2 by Brother leaving the top portion in for the sentiment.  I stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment from the Fresh Peony stamp set from stampendous. I added that cute little silver bow to the bottom and I wish I could say I made it but I received it in a RAK from a wonderful friend!

Celebrate

Hey guys, I am here again today sharing another birthday shaker card with you.  Again I've used my scan n cut 2 to cut out my shaker window.  I am featuring the Amethyst sparkle blend today which is part of the Birthstone collection!  The colors in this blend are amazing!!!  All the purples, who knew there were so many shades of purple!  Well ok probably a lot of us knew there were multiple shades of purple, but mix them all together and it looks amazing!!!

I kept my card simple today.  I distressed the edges of both the card base and the shaker window with Seedless Preserves distress ink and added a multi loop purple and white twine bow to it.  The background paper is a beautiful shade of purple with Happy Birthday sayings all over it in white.  I hope you enjoy my birthday series of card over the next few weeks!  

Remember you can only find Sparkle Blends at White Rose Crafts along with other amazing products!!!

More Birthday Wishes

Hi friends, today I have another birthday card I made using the Conversation Hearts Sparkle Blends.  I have to say this is my favorite blend out of the release!!! It has all different sizes of hearts and the colors are so bright and cheery!!

 I used a thin metal die to cut out the window and the Birthday Wishes is from the Birthday Bits stamp set from SSS which unfortunately is no longer available.  I don't know why I am in birthday card making mode but I am for some reason!!!

Remember if you know the company that this die came from please leave a comment and let me know for future references!  It too cam from the box I got at my local good will!

Birthday Wishes

Today I am sharing a card I made for my youngest Daughter.  Her birthday is tomorrow so the Garnet Sparkle Blends are perfect for a Birthday card for her!!! The background paper is from Echo Park. I can't believe my baby is 20!!!  Y'all my kids are getting old!!  LOL.

The Garnet Sparkle blends are wonderful, different shades of red, and copper, and pinks.. Just Beautiful! 

Ok, So for the dies I have been using.... I was lucky enough to find a small box full of this metal dies at my local good will so I don't know what company most of them are from !  I am so sorry about that!  If you know please leave a comment and let me know so I will be able to reference them in the future! 

You Are Amazing

Hi friends, today I have for you a clean and simple card I made using Sparkle Blend Conversation Hearts from Doodles Paper Playground and a stamp set from Honey Bee Stamps.  I used my Scan and Cut 2 to cut out a heart shape to use as a stencil/mask.  Then took several shades of Archival ink to stamp out the hearts from the You are Loved stamp set from Honey Bee Stamps.
I stamped the sentiment using black Archival Ink and then added bits and pieces of the Conversation Hearts Sparkle Blends!!  

Don't forget that you can only find the limited edition Sparkle Blends at White Rose Crafts LLC.
