Green WOYWW

 So this was the sight of my desk this WOYWW and I don't remember leaving it with those bottles all in straight line. I remember grabbing the fun flock thinking it was glamour dust obviously didn't put it back and I used the liquid pearls on a DT card for next week.
Notice my stickles are in empty cocktail sticks pots, I used several cocktail sticks when layering my images and I buy them from poundland you get loads. The plan is to get the very last drop of glitter out those bottles.
Thats also a Kars snowflake punch I'm sorry I love my Martha Stewart Glacier punch and I don't think anything can replace it so I will have to get a new one.
 So the green in my title is for the Less is More Challenge, I wish I was clever like several of entries with these CAS cards but I'll have settle for my lack of imagination cards. The first one is Inkadinkado called Winter Trails and the sentiment is from a Stampin Up set that I won at Nikki's Stampin Up Workshop's raffle.
I hate to confess but since I had so much trouble to get the clear stamp to stamp I reckon that even though I've had the set for ages it's never been used. The way I got it to work by the way is to use Versamark before inking worked a treat.
Another stamp I had quite a while and maybe used it once but this PaperMania stamp is huge but I still think its gorgeous. I have cut out and layer the baubles and the reason the glamour dust is out I smothered the baubles in it. I waited till the silicone I use is almost set that way the wet glue for the dust doesn't distend the shape when it dries.
Enough waffle get back to Craftroom, I've two baby cards to make, one 18th and couple of Birthday cards and I still have 8 Christmas cards to make.

These are both gorgeous cards. LOL I upend my stickes too and when I think there is no more left - I cut the bottom off and use a paintbrush to apply the scrapings from the bottle.

Deborah Frings said...

Both cards are simply stunning. I really like the bauble branch - I used it a lot last year. I like the way you've glittered the baubles, so pretty!

Pink Dandelion said...

Two beautiful cards Debby and such a tidy desk. My table is totally covered in 'stuff'. Now you have got me intrigued, I have those cocktail sticks too and am now wondering how you use them in your layering? I'll be using the empty tubs in the future, they have just gone in the bin until now. Debs xx

Christine L said...

Both beautiful cards hon... think I prefer the first as I love that image! Of course, tried to get it only to find it's out of stock everywhere in the UK!! Typical!! hehe
Love your tidy desk btw..

Julia Dunnit said...

Your cards are by no means uninspiring Debby, I can honestly say that's the nicest use of the paper mania stamp I've seen in the two years it's been out. you are working tidy..had to laugh at your upside down stickles...we're all the same!!

Shoshi said...

Two very stylish, sophisticated-looking cards - very nice indeed. Thanks for the tip of using versamark first on a clear stamp - I've got some that I've tried to prep by lightly sanding, and/or rubbing an eraser over them but they still stamp all blobby. This mmight just be the answer! I do love WOYWW - every week I pick up at least one really good new tip!! Happy belated WOYWW, Shoshi #53
