All That Glitters ~ "Use Your Stash" Blog Hop

This month, those of us participating in the "Use Your Stash" Blog Hop are destashing our glittery stash. So be prepared for something that shines!

If you have come here from Chasn Paper, you are right on track for the "Use Your Stash" Blog Hop. Blog Hopping is simple to do - just click on the link at the end of the post on each blog to move to the next one, or visit each blog from the list at the end of this post.

For this challenge, pieces of Glitter Paper were combined with a cute little car from the Fast and Furious stamp set and a pretty flowered print available with the Brushed paper packet. And I was happy to find some buttons with glitter to add for decorative wheels.

Now "Hop" on over to the Stampologist for more glittery projects.

An Old Fashioned Truck

Another late night creation this weekend. This image reminds me of my Papa Turf and his old red pick-up that he used as a farm truck.

Inspiration is from CAS(E) this Sketch (CTS#68). The adorable truck is in the Fast and Furious stamp set and is paper-pieced to add multiple colors to the image. Stamp the truck three times; one using Ruby as your main image, then again using Saddle for the wooden rails and Slate for the tires. Using scissors, cut out the wooden rails and the tires and adhere them to the main image covering the Ruby ink in those areas. The birthday sentiment is from the versatile Holiday Tags stamp set.

Card base is from the Paper Fundamentals and has a glossy embossed pattern on one side with the same pattern in white on the reverse. So for the larger ribbon, it is simply the reverse side of the Paper Fundamentals piece. In order to have a nice flow, the lines of the pattern are matched up.
