Introducing Sparkle and Shine...

Ok, I am super excited about today's post! These new dies from PTI....insert huge grin. I LOVE them! Today we are showcasing the new Sparkle and Shine Stamp set and dies!
Theses dies are fabulous and I love how they can make such a fun and interesting card with just a few steps! First off, here is my birthday card...

I used the inside die to make all the confetti in several colors and then I used the star die to cut some glitter paper. I added the frames in Soft Stone. I cut the "sparkle" sentiment from Berry Sorbet and then added a layer of Glossy Accents, a layer of Glitter, another layer of Glossy Accents and then another layer of Glitter. Can you say sparkle? It even shows up pretty well in the photo!

For my next project, I made a tag using the new Ornament dies.

I added a sentiment to the back of the ornament and then put in some Christmas colored sequin for the shaker. I added in some Pure Poppy striped paper for some detail. The sentiment was die cut with Pure Poppy as well and then I layered it in lots of Glossy Accents to make the Shine, shine! :)

I used some Simply Chartreuse paper and cut out 10 of the top ornament frame. Yes, I said 10. Crazy I know! BUT so easy! I glued them all together with a piece of acetate in between the top 2. I felt like this gave it a more finished look and you don't see a bunch of foam tape chunks. Another thing you can do, is die cut fun foam and stick it in there. That gives you the dimension without all the die cuts.

So that is all I have for today! These dies are all so amazing and I can't wait to see what the other girls have for us! I will be hoping along with you!
