Sparkling Spring Projects

The theme for the April Stamp Camps is Sparkling Spring – we’ll be using all of Stampin’ Up!’s glitters to add a little bling to our projects. We’ll use the new Cosmo Glitter, Chunky Sprinkles, Dazzling Diamonds, and Irridescent Ice. This is the first of the 4 projects – it uses the light green super-fine Cosmo Glitter. This stuff is FABULOUS!!

I paired the glitter with the Wild Wasabi pre-cut/pre-scored cardstock promotion and the new Sticky Cuts letters. The Sticky Cuts letters are made from the same type adhesive as the red sticky strip. Just like the roll of sticky strip, these letters are SUPER sticky so you have to be very careful when you place them on your cardstock. Once they stick, they’re stuck! I put the sticky letter “h” on to the Whisper White cardstock and then removed the protective red covering to expose the sticky side and then covered it with the light green Cosmo glitter. The Whisper White is matted with Brilliant Blue and then mounted over the Jersey Shore patterned paper.

It seems like I can’t get enough of the scalloped edges lately, so I used the corner rounder punch to create a scalloped edge along the small flap on the card front. I used the Happy Everything stamp set to stamp “happy” on the front flap and then “birthday” on the inside of the card. Throw in a little Pumpkin grosgrain ribbon and the card is complete!

Here’s a little tip – to remove and excess glitter from the cardstock (or your craft table), gently rub the area with a Swiffer cloth! Works like a charm!!
