giveaway - penny black lily

Hello Friends, How was your weekend?? I had some time to get crafty with some special friends and can't wait to share later in the week. Earlier this month I posted a tutorial of this "Tiger Lily" from Penny Black in this post. Today I'm sharing the final card. 

This beautiful background stamp called, "Decadence" from Penny Black enhanced my Tiger Lily. Two colors of distress ink were added with a dauber. A spray of my all time favorite "Sheer Shimmer Spritz" is the perfect final touch on my framed card.

After using some pop dots behind the frame I used Scrap Dots on the back of my Lily. 

Can you see the sparkle? Love how the sparkle stays only on the card.
For the giveaway see the Rafflecopter below. 
Just giving it a try again. Have a great day! Hugs, Kathy
P.S. Did you see my CARD KIT GIVEAWAY from Simon Says Stamp?

Hello Friends, How was your weekend??  I hope it was a crafty one :)

Today is that day of the month that I love ...

when I get to give one of Simon Says Stamps newest card kit away to one of you. 

As you probably saw during the hop that you can get pretty crafty with this awesome November Card Kit.

(Included in each card kit is an inspiration sheet with 6 ideas using the kit.  You'll also receive ideas via email newsletter with even more project ideas and video links using the items in the kit.

My card came together easily with these papers called, "Cut & Paste" that are included in the card kit. I love how this card isn't gender specific & the Kelly Purkey feather takes center stage. The feather die cut has a handy slit down the center ... perfect for some gold sequins. 
Just a quick post today. Thanks so much for your visit today. Hugs, Kathy

CARD NUMBER TWO:

I took advantage of the holes in the paper pad called, "Cut & Paste" when I designed this card. The "Thanks" die cut was flipped in the Robin's Egg paper for a minor detail. Feathers can enhance any card. These were distressed down the middle and my favorite Rock Candy was added to the feathers.

CARD NUMBER THREE:

This background is one sheet of paper from the "Cut & Paste".(papers vary in this card kit) So much fun to whip up a fast card. I did add the banner at the bottom and the stamped the "Birthday" . The tree was die cut TWICE to give the tree more layers and I distressed the edges. Rock Candy was added for shine and it gives the paper more body. I used Glossy Accents on the star atop the tree and poured on some speciality glitter.
