BLACK Friday Special !!

WHOOOO HOOOO  a AWESOME special is going on with Stampin Up!  that starts today through Dec 15th  .. CLICK HERE  to see all the goodies  that  will be flying off the shelf  girls ..PLUS I have a special  for TODAY ONLY  email me  for details  on this ONE day special from me to YOU! ...

Hope your  Thanksgiving  was wonderful. Todays card was   the card I gave away  this morning  on  my  blog COUNTING MY BLESSINGS  I used the stamp set from the mini called STEM SILHOUETTES  ( this set will be  gone  after  this month  girls ) I used  River  Rock ink  and cardstock  with  the chocolate  chip taffeta  ribbon  and  dazzling  diamonds . This technique  is called reverse  masking . I used the coluzzle  to cut my  template out  for the   center  and then laid the  template  on the  front of my  card and  used my dauber with River Rock ink and  applied the  ink inside the  cut out template . I then stamped the images with chocolate chip ink  inside  this  template also ( But  first stamped off to make image  lighter ) .. removed the  circle  template and stamped the   same image  in  Chocolate  chip  full color .. Pretty spiffy  huh? I then  dragged the 2 way glue pen flat  tip   around the  base  card edges  and then added  dazzling  diamonds .. WOW!!

Thanks  for stopping in  today and  can't wait to hear from you ..

Until later ... Happy Stampin!!

Good Morning Dawn!

I hope your Thanksgiving was nice! Did you eat tons? I love holidays!
Beautiful card! I love this set and I know I will get tons of use out of it for years to come. I wondered how you did the edge all the time...darn girl you got a steady hand applying such a straight line of glue!
Hope you have a fantastic Friday!
Hugs

Dawn,
This card is gorgeous!!! And I'll bet the glitter just knocks your socks off in person!
I've got you on google reader so I don't miss a single post. Thanks for sharing.

P.S. I've got a post on my blog tomorrow that links and references to your post about the peppermint patty holder - you inspired me!

Dawn, your card is stunning! I love elegant cards and you nailed it with this one! I am so behind in using teqhniques. I have got to start trying some of them like the reverse masking. I hope your Thanksgiving day was as wonderful as it could be. I see on your counter that Rich will be home in just 34 days. YaY. Just in time for Christmas? :)

Hi Dawn,
Love the card and this technique and cant wait to try it out - it looks so versatile and with only having a few SU sets, its just perfect for me and other UK SU stampers - so thank you once again for such lovely inspiration!
