5. Take the Dazzeling Diamonds and using your Powder Pal to catch any excess glitter pore onto the flower to give it some texture and sparkle. Let dry and then brush off any excess making sure to do so over the Powder Pal so none is wasted.
6. Using the Rich Razzleberry 2” w x 9” h card stock and with the Piercing Tool and Mat Pack I pierced alone on edge (on the right side) giving it a textured feel.

Day 1: The 7 day challenge

So day one has worked out very well (not sure what this is see Challenge here). Below is my first kick at a two page spread using Lovely Flowers Bundle. I'm so in love the new In Colours. At first I was like give me some glasses these colours are so bright (I am a oh neutral kinda gal) but when you use the paper from this bundle and add some white its fantastic.

This is an easy page but it looks so lovely and really they don’t all have to be complicated.

2. Take the Curly Label Punch and punch out one using the DSP Paper Lovely Flowers.
3. For the Word Window punch, remembering to always stamp text first then punch. Using one of the stamps from Warm Words, I chose “cherish” and Old Olive Classic Ink stamp onto a piece of Melon Mambo and then punch out using Word Window Punch.
