This week’s Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop theme is our Favorite New Accessory from the Annual Catalog! This could be Designer Paper, Bling, or whatever accessory they wanted to use! I chose to use the new 2022-24 In Color Glimmer Paper! Wowzers! SO much sparkle!
HAPPINESS ABOUNDS
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Tahitian Tide cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.

- Three 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 strips of Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party and Orchid Oasis Glimmer Paper were added to the background.
