I love all of the older Mimi Images, and feel like I've neglected them for too long.  So I decided to ink up Mimi's Bubble Bath. Mostly because I absolutely love making sparkly bubbles, and partially since I wasn't in the mood to color some of the more intricate Mimi stamps.  I used crystal lacquer covered in extra fine glitter to make raised up glittery bubbles. I used a few markers to add some color, layered cardstock, done! 

DeNami Theme Challenge: One Layer Cards

Welcome to the DeNami Theme Challenge: One Layer Cards! 

Such a fun challenge, you know everyone will have a unique take on this one.  Make sure to visit the DeNami Blog and visit my fellow Design Team girls blogs for more inspiration.

My main objective for this one layered card was to show you guys the new glitter colors.  How'd I do? The hot pink color is the new Fuchsia Glitter. The middle grey color is the new Marcasite Glitter,  I thought it needed a little more... so I added some aquamarine glitter. I used a new border stamp from the Modern Borders Set. I must say I think this chevron stamp is one of my favorites!  An older but just as beautiful saying -- Birthday Blessings   was stamped in Versamark and embossed using white embossing powder. OH, and do you that DeNami sells the fabulous Glue Pad that you need for this technique?  Just take any stamp, tap it onto the glue pad, stamp on your cardstock, and sprinkle with glitter. DONE... yes, it is that easy!  

Make sure to join us in this challenge!  You have the chance to win a DeNami Gift Certificate! Fun!!

DeNami Theme Challenge: ANYTHING GOES

Sometimes it is fun to be challenged, other times it's just nice to create what you want... today is that day!  You can participate in the DeNami Theme Challenge: Anything Goes! Just make sure to use a DeNami stamp and link up your creations to the DeNami Blog.

I just got this gorgeous new Pink Ink pad from DeNami, so I "had" to use it on my card.  I also picked up this new stamp when I was at the Vegas Stamp Show a few months back, it was time to give it a try. I stamped the large bamboo leaf in the Pixie Dust pink color, added the sentiment and then went back and used a quickie glue pen to add some Extra fine glitter.  I planned on putting a big black bow on the top, but it covered up too much of the pretty pink stamping, so I left in off.  Hope it isn't too boring, it is SO pretty in person with all of the glitter on it.

The Young Crafters Unite Challenge is Clean and Simple --- so this card works perfectly for it. 

Supplies:

Stamps: Large Bamboo Leaf, Thank You

Cardstock: White and Black
ink: Versamagic Pixie Dust and Versafine Black.

Extra fine glitter and quickie glue pen.

My hardest part about this challenge was choosing what stamps to use.  I am SO lucky to own a variety of Cute DeNami stamps.  I wanted to use one that I normally wouldn't grab. I chose the Polka Dot Elephant.  I don't know anyone having a baby... but it just seemed perfect to make a baby card with it.

Stamps: Polka Dot Elephant,  mini heart, Congrats from Thoughtful Greetings set.
Ink: Versafine Sepia, Aloe Vera,  Pearlescent Orchid.
Cardstock: White, Kraft, Chocolate Brown
Misc: Rhinestones, Buttons 5/8 Pink Ribbon.
