Belli Challenge -127 - Paper Piecing

Here is a creation for the Belli Challenge.  This week's theme is "Paper Piecing", where you cut stamped shapes out of paper.  I used a Quickutz die for the penguins and the snowflakes.  My designer paper is from Hobby Lobby. Then I cuddlebugged the glitter paper with the Swiss Dots embossing folder. The punch is "Icicles" by MS.  And my finishing touches are an Inkadinkado sentiment and blue pearls.

Belli Challenge--Anything with an R

I made this card for friends of mine who is celebrating their 10th anniversary.  The image is "Everlasting Light".  You can find this wonderful image over at DeeDee's Digis.  Our challenge this week is to use anything with R's.  I have roses, ribbon, red pearls.

I colored the candle and roses with Copic markers.  The embossing folder is from Quickutz.  Then I added a red satin ribbon and some lacey scallop trim (that I got from my sister).  Next I added a red/gold organza ribbon and a red rose from  Recollections.   I finished by adding red pearls on the diamond shapes.
