Buttons, Free Ink Pads and 28 New Stamp Sets!!

Hi its Harriet here!  Great new things are going on at Woodware USA -  you get free inky links stamp pads with purchase...not one but TWO!!

AND...
28 new stamp sets are in the store…you have to check them out! There are some awesome new sets just in time for the holidays!!

This week's challenge here on the WoodwareUSA blog is to use buttons.  I used buttons for the snowballs and I used the Polar Bears set.   I was inspired by this week's CPS sketch for the design of my card.  Now let's see what you make with buttons! You don't have to use Woodware stamps but if you have them we'd love to see them!  Just link up your card in the comments here so we can see your creation!  Come back here tomorrow to see what Dawn created using buttons and Woodware stamps!

Challenge #7 - Glitter and Bling


Hi Everyone,

Welcome to the final sample for our "Glitter and Bling" challenge this week!  I created my "Glitter and Bling" card using two winter themed sets from Woodware:

Penguin Fun
Polar Bears


Both sets are as cute as can be, I think every set is my new favorite everytime a get a new one!






 I stamped two of the trees from Penguin Fun onto the inside of my card along with the igloo and moonlight image from Polar Bears. Then stamped the image of the polar bears sitting, staring up at the sky with StazOn black ink onto acetate.  On the reverse side I glittered them up with a hologram glitter. The tree and moon on the inside are glittered up also.

 
I layered an embossed Cuttlebug snowflake panel over the front cover of the card, added more glitter and some bling to complete the card.



(Sorry for the bad photos, this was so hard to photograph!  The acetate reflected the photographer - me! - and it was hard to capture the glitter effects.)


That's it this week for the Glitter and Bling Challenge!!  Stop by next week for 7 days of card samples using Woodwared USA Clear Stamps!!

Hugs,
Anne

A New Week at Woodware USA!!

We have a freebie to give away when we reach 100 followers,
so become a follower for your chance to win!!
It’s Monday, and I’m here with a new challenge for you from our Woodware USA design team! Bonnie Rose has had to leave the team, and we will truly miss her. However, the show must go on, and I will be kicking off the challenges each Monday from now on! Normally, I’m a hide in bed on Monday mornings, but here I am, and I’m ready to go.

This week’s challenge is to use GLITTER and BLING in your creations. Well, sometimes I feel like I came out of the womb destined to be glittery! And, the way I find little specks all over my house, I think that I still haven’t lost my glitz!

I have used the adorable set—Penguin Fun for my card today, and it is a fun one! I also coupled it with some marvelous Christmas paper from My Mind’s Eye. I’ve also greatly distressed as many edges as I could! We hope that you will join us and play along!!


Next, I have my card from last week’s challenge—paper piecing. I have used the adorable Mary and Friends for my inspiration today. My usual day to post was this past Saturday, but I decided to just run the two together. If I could have paper pieced the girl’s skin, I would have. Everything else is paper-pieced using Green at Heart by Basic Grey. I just love that paper, and I was able to use my scraps on this one! The cardstock colors are Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry by Stampin’ Up. I used an EK Success border punch and some SU ribbon and punches.
Check back tomorrow for more design team inspiration!!
