Good morning! Today we’re starting the third challenge for Where Creativity Meets C9 and our theme is Sparkle and Shine! You can find all the details and the rest of the design team’s creations here!
We are sponsored by the fabulous Concord & 9th and one lucky random entry will receive a $25 gift certificate for a Concord & 9th shopping spree and our favorite entry will be asked to guest-design for a future challenge!
And here’s what I created for our Sparkle and Shine theme:
I love the frame die and that floral frame is so pretty! I started by cutting the die with white cardstock and then heat-embossing the entire frame with holographic sparkle embossing glitter (one of my favorites if you couldn’t tell). Then I lightly outlined where the flower would fall on a piece of watercolor paper and then used my mission gold watercolors to add a watercolor wash behind the die. I softened the colors with a layer of iridescent medium. Next I stamped the sentiment, heat-embossed it with silver embossing powder and then added splatters of purple across the paper. I created a shaker frame and filled the shaker with silver, purple, and clear sequins and beads. So I think it fits the bill for sparkle and shine! 😉
And now it’s your turn! The challenge ends on November 29th and I can’t wait to see what you’ll create! Don’t forget to follow us on Facebook and Instagram for more design inspiration throughout the month! Thanks so much for visiting and have a fabulous weekend!
