CCM Saturday Blog Hop – Bringing in the New Year

HAPPY NEW YEAR’S EVE!!!!  This week’s CCM Saturday Blog Hop theme is “Bringing in the New Year”.  Can be cards with Glimmer Paper, Metallic Embossing, Metallic Paper, Wink of Stella…anything that gives a shimmer or shine!  That’s one of my favorite things about the holidays…can’t have too much!  Do you go out on New Year’s Eve?  We did for many years, but recent years have stayed home and celebrated.

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
• A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic Black cardstock is added on top.
• The 2-1/2 x 5 strip of Celebrate Everything Designer Paper is added towards the left side.
• A 1-1/4 x 4 strip of Gold Glimmer Paper was added on top.
• 2023 was cut from Gold Glimmer Paper with the Alphabet A La Mode Dies and adhered to the front.
• The Handmade Wishes outline image was stamped with Memento Black Ink.  The Happy New Year’s was stamped with VersaMark and embossed with Gold Embossing Powder.
• The top of the tag was punched with a 1/8″ Circle Punch and Gold Shimmer Ribbon tied in a bow.  The tag was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

 

I was very happy with how this turned out!  OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Connie and Mary website, then on to creative Mary Brown, or head backwards to see Melissa Davies’ fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!
