Here is a card I did for a demo swap today it features the Love you Much (113756, $25.95w) stamp set. The designer series paper I used is from the special bundle pack only available through tomorrow. So if you haven't ordered your " Filled with Love " bundle, tomorrow is the last day to get it. The sparkly heart is the red glimmer paper (121790, $3.95/2 sheets), I love this paper! You can punch through it so easily and it adds such dimension and pizzazz to your cards. On this card though I punched a heart through the fron of the card and then layered a small square of the glimmer paper behind it. Use glue dots to ensure a good hold.

As promised to some who attended class last week here is my "Love Bug" card. My downline Diana was kind enough to share with me her instructions that she may have gotten from here . But I will verify with her on that and correct if needed. We changed some of the punches just because we didn't have them and/or thought some of the newer punches worked better. The window was Diana's idea entirely. Details: Top: 2-1/2" circle punch with the large oval for window, slot punch for rear view mirror Hood - extra large oval, large oval cut in half Fenders - large oval chrome - word window and slot punch (we no longer sell it) Tires : Modern label Headlights - 1/2" circle punch with a generic rhinestone on top. Most supplies are Stampin' Up! The cardstock is real red, basic black and pretty in pink. The shimmery paper for the chrome is paper Diana had in her stash. The Love patterns dsp is from the Filled with Love bundle. Other items used are the small hea...

I stamped the images and then punched the hearts out of our new Glimmer paper (121790, 2 sheets $3.95). I was amazed and happy with how easy it was to punch through the paper. I attached the hearts to the card with dimentionals. I also thought this card could use some color so I added the wasabi and marina mist. The picture does not do this card justice. We will be making this card at my club class on Thursday. I features the Beveled Window panes ( 121881, 12 for $7.95), Glimmer paper, and F...
