Glitter window

Lately, I've been revisiting old favorite techniques. This week, I made a glitter window card. I saw this version of the glitter window back in 2008 at the Milwaukee regional. My tutorial is here.
For this week's card, I went super simple. Instead of using punches, I used the die-cut Fresh Cut note card. All I had to do was trim it to size, pop out the petals and apply the packing tape. (I did stamp it with Fresh Cuts first.) I chose a wild color combo that I got from the Color Lab site: Tempting Turquoise, Poppy Parade, Pear Pizzazz and Crumb Cake.
To tie the ribbon, I cut a slit in the ribbon and slid the other end through, tying it with linen thread. I love the look, and it lies so nice and flat!
Supplies: Stamps: Fresh Cuts, Extreme Elements; Paper: Fresh Cut Notes, Crumb Cake, Level 1 DSP; Ink: Pear Pizzazz, Tempting Turquoise, Crumb Cake, Poppy Parade; Accessories: cosmo glitter, neutral button, pear pizzazz ribbon, linen thread, packing tape
Happy stamping!

A Blast from the Past

It seems like so long ago that Fresh Cut notes were the big new thing, but they're still around! They even have some relatives in the new catalog, so be sure to check them out!
I got my color combo from one of the new DSPs: Orchid Opulence, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive. I stamped Tres Chic in Orchid onto the notecard and then punched out the die-cut petals. I punched a five petal flower from Rich Razzleberry textured cardstock and attached it behind the opening with a Chocolate Chip 5/16" brad. I added an Old Olive felt flower to the front. I sponged Rich Razzleberry ink around the edge of the card and tied a Rich Razzleberry ribbon knot. Very quick and easy!
Happy stamping!
