This week's Watercooler Wednesday WWC106

 It's another Clean & Simple challenge and this time Heidi is asking for sparkle---lots and lots of sparkle.  Who doesn't like sparkle, right?

Well, clean and simple is always a challenge.  My card, this week, uses the Balloon Celebration stamp set with the colours, Bashful Blue, Ballet Blue, and Real Red on Whisper White card stock.
And for the sparkle, I used Stampin Up Heat and Stick powder and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.

Here is my card:

Thanks for looking.

This week the Watercooler Wednesday WWC105 challenge is a special colour challenge
It's a colour challenge based on the image shown below.  You can see the colours Marsha has suggested below the photo, based on Stampin' Up! colours.  I

Marsha's SU! colour suggestions (from left to right):

Very Vanilla, Blushing Bride, Peekaboo Peach, Rich Razzleberry, Emerald Envy, Mint Macaron

My entry into the challenge this week is a pop up box card, made for my sister-in-law's birthday.  I started with Whisper White card stock for the base of the box and covered it with retired DSP.  The flowers and leaves were Peekaboo Peach, Rich Razzleberry and Mint Macaron using the Botanical Builder Die.  The veins in the leaves are made from the Botanical Blooms stamp with Emerald Envy.  The sentiment is from the Birthday Blossoms stamp set.  AND set amongst the flowers is "60" die cut from Blushing Bride Shimmer paper.

Thanks for looking.

Watercooler Wednesday WWC104

This week the Watercooler Wednesday challenge is a sketch by Kath.

Lots of inspiration from Kath's challenge. 

I choose to make a Valentines' card.  Here is the front.

 and the inside of the card

I started with Pink Pirouette card stock and layered Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper and a long retired Valentines' DSP.  I used the Swirly Scribbles Thinlets die cut and the hearts from the Up and Away Framelits.  The sentiments are from retired sets of I (Heart) Hearts, Filled with Love and Valentine Defined.  I finished the card with three pink rhinestones.

Thanks for looking at my card.
