Sparkly & Bright waterfall card...

What to do when you have so many cute stamps? Make a Waterfall Technique Card.

I used the Sparkly & Bright stamp set, stamping the images in Ruby Red, Taken with Teal and Sahara Sand on Whisper White card stock. Those layered squares are adhered onto a scored strip of Taken with Teal.

The card is a 10-1/2" x 5" piece of Sahara Sand on a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Taken with Teal.

The strip of Holiday Lounge designer paper is layered on a same-sized strip of Taken with Teal for strength. The brads hold the strips in place so when you pull the long strip at the ribbon knot, the squares flip up to expose each stamped image.

Modern Sparkly & Bright...

Kim earned a prize for this card contest entry at my Christmas Spectacular. The Rose Red card uses four punches, Thoroughly Modern designer series paper, and the Sparkly & Bright stamp set.

There's glitter on the stocking, reindeer and the letter "i" in the word "bright." The knot of Bermuda Bay polka-dotted ribbon adds to the bright cheeriness of this card.

Shimmery Sparkly & Bright reindeer...

Here's another card from my Christmas Spectacular, featuring the Sparkly & Bright stamp set.

Can't have Christmas without a red-nosed reindeer! This one was stamped in Close to Cocoa on Very Vanilla card stock, then adhered to a small metal-edge tag.

I dipped a sponge dauber into the lid of Champagne Shimmer Paint and dabbed it all over the reindeer layer and the rim of the tag.

After adding a little red pom pom with a mini glue dot for the nose, the tag was stuck on with dimensionals.

The red designer paper is from the Christmas Cocoa pack. It's layered on Old Olive card stock, which has been scalloped at the bottom with a punch. Add a strip of ribbon with all of the colors in it, and the greeting and that's it!

Sparkly & Bright shaker card...

I hosted my annual Christmas Spectacular today. The star of the event was the Sparkly & Bright stamp set. All five projects used stamps from that set.

Here's the first card. It's a shaker card using a Sweet Treat Cup and coarse white glitter.

The card is Bermuda Bay, with a knot of polka-dotted ribbon. I added a quarter sheet of snowflake vellum (available in the Holiday Mini Catalog), using two mini glue dots under two snowflakes and hidden by the ribbon.

I punched the 1-3/4" circle first in the window sheet, then stamped the sentiment in Basic Black on Soft Suede card stock, positioning that piece in the center of the window.

I used Crushed Curry, Bermuda Bay and Soft Suede markers to ink up the tree image, which was then adhered through the window to the Soft Suede layer.

To finish the card, I added coarse glitter to the cup, removed the adhesive around the rim and placed it on the Soft Suede layer. I love those Sweet Treat Cups!!!

Sparkly & Bright...

Have you played with the Holiday Lounge paper yet? It's so awesomely modern and retro. I love it!

I took the tree from Sparkly & Bright and used markers (Sahara Sand, Real Red and Bermuda Bay) to ink it, then a 1-1/4" square punch to punch it out of the Whisper White card stock.

A snowflake from the set is stamped in Sahara Sand on the Sahara Sand card front, with a strip of Holiday Lounge paper adhered to the left.
