Silver Baubles

I wanted to give you a sneak peek at the new Build-a-Bauble set today. It's fun, it's versatile...and I have a whole bunch of ideas of things I want to try with it. This was one of the first ones that came to mind. My ornaments are embossed with silver powder, trimmed out, and mounted with foam tape. The bling and edge punch is from Martha Stewart, and the ribbon is May Arts.


Stamps: Build-a-Bauble, Holiday Script
Card Stock: White, Navy
Ink: VersaMark, Silver Encore!
Accessories: Silver embossing powder, clear gem stickers (Martha Stewart), Simple Scallop Edge punch (Martha Stewart), May Arts ribbon, Scotch Foam tape

 
 I had every intention of making another sneak peek card using Circle Sentiments, but ran out of time. I will try and see if I can work one in today, but if not...be sure to check the other team members blogs. Many have samples of that, and Build-a-Bauble.

Thanks for stopping by!!
