For my post today I thought I'd share one of the cards we will be doing in our class on July 25 at Stampin' Cat Studio in Salem which features one of the BRAND NEW stencils just released by Dreamweaver in May. It is LG745 Silhouette Trees.

Although I LOVE working with glitter, it is very hard to get a nice sharp picture with it. If any of  you have any tips, I'd so appreciate any you could share with camera-challenged me.

Here is my post for today:

In celebration of it being the first full day of summer (yeah!), I used the Art Glitter Caribbean set and combined it with Dreamweaver's LL564 Large Lace Border stencil using the Double glitter waterfall technique.

The LM275 With Love stencil was paste embossed and then sprinkled with Crystal Glitter.

A simple, clean card that could be used for a variety of occasions.

Rock Star!

Okay, with graduations and Father's Day this weekend plus all the promos for the movie "Rock Star" playing across the TV, I thought today's card would be quite fitting.

Guitar is Dreamweaver's NEW LL3028 stencil!!!

To create the gold strips, I just cut 1/2" strips of Dreamweaver's Double-sided mounting paper and then sprinkled Art Glitter's Old Gold glitter over them. I created the stars the same way, using a larger piece of the paper and then a Spellbinder's die to cut them out. The black microfine glitter and the white background is my standby Crystal.

I hope you all have a ROCKIN' good day. Don't forget to head over to both the Dreamweaver and Art Glitter blogs this week to check out all the cool glittery creations! And remember to leave comments because there are winners every week! See the Dreamweaver blog for all the info.

Until next week, ROCK ON!!!

A Month of Glitter (UPDATED)

So, if April Showers Bring May Flowers, what does June bring?

It brings an incredible collaboration between Dreamweaver Stencils and Art Glitter!

My creation started with Dreamweaver's LG740 Open Butterfly  stencil and double-sided mounting paper. Using the waterfall technique I applied Sedona Sun, Mai Mango and Red Oak glitter to the openings in the butterfly (hereinafter called a "glitterfly"!) Then after carefully peeling the Glitterfly off of the stencil I finished with a layer of the blue Nirvana (remember blue and orange are opposite colors so they play well off each other.)

Then I ran my orange A2 card through my BigShot with the NEW Daisy background.

For the little butterflies (note: not glitterflies!) I ironed 3 layers of Fantasy Film together and then punched them out with my Martha Stewart butterfly punch. I apologize, I have had the Fantasy Film for years and no longer have the packaging so I don't know what color it is.

Bright and cheery, exactly what I needed today!
