Colored Glimmer Paper!

Looks like my blog is still online, fingers crossed that it stays that way. Thanks so much for hanging in there with me. I have been really stressed out and frustrated this past week but I am hopeful that the worst is behind me. :-) _________________________________________________________________________________

This card is from my Technique Geeks Class last month. We learned how to color our Silver Glimmer Paper. This paper is on the retiring accessories list as an item that will be reconfigured in the next catalog.

Not exactly sure what that means so if you like the Glimmer Paper the way it is now, get some!! We took a square of the Silver Glimmer Paper and used a Sponge Dauber (also being reconfigured) and the Raspberry Ripple Ink Pad to color it and then used the Pansy Punch and Petite Petals Punch to crop the flowers....so easy!

I added a few leaf sprigs from the Owl Builder Punch behind the flowers and attached them to a piece of Pink Pirouette card stock cropped with the Extra Large Oval Punch. Pearls were added to the flower middles.

Here is a close up of the colored glimmer paper flowers:

In the above sample, I added some Raspberry Ripple Stitched Satin Ribbon around the middle of the card. For the one below, I used the Primrose Petals ribbon. Not sure which one I like better, I would love you to comment below and let me know your favorite.
