In a few short weeks, the 2016-2017 Annual catalog and 2017 Occasions catalog will retire, and with it, lots of really amazing products.  Some of these have become my favorites!  If you are hopping along with the Blue Water Bloggers, thanks for joining the fun!  Enjoy one last look at the great products we are featuring.  This is your last chance to get them before they are gone!

Build a Birthday stamp set with Dazzling Diamonds glitter.  Stamped in Watermelon Wonder, Flirty Flamingo, Blushing Bride, and Cucumber Crush ink.

Today I would like to share a stamp set that was a go to for fast cards.  I added a twist with some glitter to make it extra special.  This card uses several retiring products, including one of my favorite ink colors, Watermelon Wonder.  Once it is gone, I will have to find a new favorite, but for now, Watermelon Wonder, I still love you!

 

I stamped this card with this color combo: 

 

Now, to make this, you will want to cut your cardstock as follows:

            Watermelon Wonder 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2"

            Blushing Bride layer 3 3/4" x 5"

            Whisper White layer 3 5/8" x 4 7/8"

 

Once your cardstock is cut, stamp your cake in any color combination of choice, than add your glitter and ribbon.  Adding the Dazzling Diamonds glitter makes this card.  The shimmer is amazing and just gorgeous!

I have included a video, so you can see how I added the Dazzling Diamonds glitter!  It is my first video, so bear with me!  If you don't want to use glitter, clear Wink of Stella could be an alternative.

 

 

 

All the retiring products can be found here.  Don't miss out — this is your last chance to snag them!  The retiring products I used include:  Build a Birthday stamp set, Balloon Adventures stamp set, Watermelon Wonder cardstock and ink, Cucumber Crush ink, Heat & Stick Powder, and the Flirty Flamingo 3/8" ruched ribbon.
