Snowman Card w/ Faux Mother of Pearl

 

I made these cards for my co-workers, aren't they cute!?  I used the adorable snowman from Snow Much Fun stamp set, and did a little colouring with my Stampin' Write Markers. The base of the card is Cherry Cobbler, embossed with the Northern Flurry embossing folder. The strip is Baja Breeze cardstock punched with the Pinking hearts border punch. 

I did the Faux Mother of Pearl technique on the snowman. This involves some scrunched up saran wrap dipped in some Frost White Shimmer Paint and dabbed onto the image...then sponge a little Baja Breeze ink afterwards...looks amazing in person, kind of hard to catch it in a photo....

I also had to add my best friend, Dazzling Details! Gotta love glitter!

Lots of Projects to share!

 I just realized I had a bunch of projects to share from a recent class and Stamp Club I attended this past month, so I thought I would share!

Here's the 3 projects we did at Allison's Stamp Club this past month....
Our technique was Faux Mother of Pearl. It's a super simple way to add some beautiful detail to any project.
I will probably do a tutorial on it later on...

Our next card was a super cute one using the new Petite Pocket Die....

Open up the envelope and there's a surprise inside!

 3 little tags!
The last card was a Christmas one using the Postage Stamp Punch and Merry & Type stamp set...

All 3 projects featured the Spice Cake Designer Series Paper, and Fabric....so pretty!

I also have 3 more cards to share from an Embossing class I took last week....First card is a replica of the christmas one I just showed you, but different colours and the Faux Metal technique.

I just love the look of this Faux metal.....so cool!

Next was the Cracked Glass technique....very neat!

 And the last is the Double Embossing Technique....

 

I really like the look of this one!

Excellent cards Allison, thanks for teaching us!
