Oh how I wish I was there in Utah!!
Most of us do but because we can't make it let's have some of our own online fun.
Welcome to the
Those left behind Blog Hop!
If you just came here boy are lucky cause there are plenty of ladies in this blog hop.There will be challenges posted along the way with instructions on how to share and many will be offering blog candy too.
So without further ado!!your challenge on my blog will be as follows:
Create a card,layout or project of your choice celebrating either Canada Day or Independence Day.
For those outside either of these countries, do a project celebrating your own countries colours and your own special celebrations.50% product must be CC
TA!!DA!!
Here is mine,we haven't actually gone to the party yet but I anticipate a great photo to put on it.
I used a flower stamp as the fireworks image.I thought it looked kinda like one.
1.First I stamp the image with silver let that dry and stamped with versa mark.After I embossed with my Zing embossing powder,I realized the silver was gone so after the embossing dried,I re-inked with silver.
2. When that was dry I added a bit of bling.
3. I added a pocket to hold a few tags that I will journal on after the party(maybe).
4. Some lovely rubons that I received in a HC from CC came in handy too.
Products used:yours Truly cardstock
Christmas bling
Zing Embossing powder red and white
Silver ink pad
Stamp bought at dollar store.
Jenni Bowlin rubons
