Hi Guys!
Long time no see!
Life has been pretty crazy this past week but I have been crafting!
Just not sharing :/
I have a twofer today so hopefully that makes up for it. A little?
While I love all the colors and all things coloring I can recognize that not everyone does. AND sometimes we all need something that comes together pretty quick with a neutral vibe.
I used two different colors of glimmer paste and some neutrals to create today's cards. The limited color palette along with lots of shine still has lots of WOW factor with a minimal amount of effort.
To start I chose two different glitter papers so EVERYTHING would be glittery. I taped down my stencils then spread on a very thin layer of glitter paste. Once you peel the stencil up GO WASH IT. Seriously, right now. go.
Once the glimmer paste is on, let it dry. I dried mine overnight just to be sure. I die cut my heart and circle then set aside the rest to maybe use on a later project :) I stamped and heat embossed my images in both black gold to be all matchy matchy.

I decided not to add anything to the images because I felt they were interesting enough without color. Perfect accents all on their own. With that said I did add some interest to the card base. Just some sprays and spatters so it wouldn't be stark white.
You can see the whole process in the video below.
While I'm partial to the black and pink one I think they both are a simple enough design that they could work for lots of different occasions.
Thanks for stopping by.
I'll be back SO soon you won't even have time to miss me!
