Little Tangles Challenge #55: Sequins

Hello, friends!  I'm back today with two cards to share for the current Little Tangles Challenge #55: Sequins.


I was the lucky winner for their last challenge (see here), and as a result I was able to pick a stamp of my choice as a prize.  I knew exactly what I wanted!  Wasn't it sweet that a packet of sequins was included in my prize envelope?  I knew I had to play along with the challenge this week!

Believe it or not, the bokeh background on my cards was an image I found on Pinterest (a free downloadable background), so I printed it several times and then played with different color inks and embossing powders until I came up with a favorite.  I can't get enough of this sentiment!  (I might put one of these cards in my husband's lunch as a little surprise!)  I made two versions for this challenge -- one using black embossed ink, and the other using liquid platinum embossing powder.








Please be sure to check out the Neat and Tangled Challenge Blog - Little Tangles for lots of design team inspiration and an amazing pool of entries.  If you like sequins, this is the challenge for you!  Don't have any Neat and Tangled stamps?  Play with their free digis -- that's what I did last time and my card won!  (I'm still in shock, to be honest!)

Thanks, as always, for stopping by!

  2. Congrats on your win, Judy! Amazing how different the two cards look using the same stamp. The sentiment and sequins really pop against the Bokeh backgrounds. Great designs!

  4. I love that sentiment! Wonderful choice! The bokeh is beautiful and so is the embossing - both of them! The sequins look like they are an extension of the bokeh design!
