HAPPY NEW YEARS

Happy New Years everyone. I wish you all the best. I finished out 2011 being a stampin fool and I'm bring in 2012 the same way. Starting with The friday Mashup. It's challenge #39 and they would like to see A New Year's card with some sparkles. Well heck I thing I can do that. I don't have any stamps really related to new year's. Except of course the words, So I'll have to use my brain.

I've come up with 2 cards.

The first one. All I could think of was fireworks and like I said no stamp, but I do have a dandelion stamp that could pass as fireworks (maybe). I have a set of number stamps from The Angel company. So here's what I came up with.

I chose Cherry Cobbler as my base. On my white background a stamped and gold embossed the dandelion stamp. I wanted it to look like the sky on New Years Eve. On another piece of white card stock, I gold embossed the number 2012 and then colored them in with Cherry Cobbler marker. The Happy New years is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes set and I stamp it in Cherry Cobbler. I  then added 2 big gold brads. So that's card one. Hope you like it.

Now for card 2

My little mouse stamp from The Angel Company was still laying out and I thought he would look so cute hanging from balloons. I had to do a little mashing on this one, but got the little guy off his leaf and onto the balloons.

For this card I chose Real Red and white. I water colored the balloons in red, green, and gold. I also added glitter to them. I embossed my white background with a Cuddlebug folder and edged it with Real Red so it would stand out from the white card base. The red ribbon has red glitter going through it. I used a scallop punch and a oval  punch for my sentiment.And that's card 2.
