I saw this colour dare challenge and saw that there was Gold and silver and thought about glitter paper. Then I realised that I had Papaya Glitter Paper, and Sapphire Glitter Paper. You can buy all the glitter paper in the Glitter Paper Bundle

I knew I needed to make a special card for this colour dare because it was my nieces 18th birthday. Her name is Sapphire and I saw Sapphire colour in this challenge and thought... PERFECT!

So I decided to make it a bit more special and use the Slimline Cards & Envelopes. That longer size is a big more special. 


I cut the Papaya Glitter Paper, and Sapphire Glitter Paper into 3/4 inch strips and the Gold Glitter Paper & Silver Glitter Paper into 1/2 inch strips and used the new Air Touch Adhesive along the card to complete the stripes. I cut off the overhang on the Aluminum Cut Rail Paper Trimmer

I finished the card off with White Daisy Cardstock and  Classic Alphabet Thin Cuts
that I added on top of the glitter paper with 3-D Foam Tape

Our Colour Dare Challenge for #470 is Tic Tac Toe using the Candid Moments Scrapbooking Workshop Kityou are free to use Black & White. When you are creating for more than one challenge please make sure your project meets our requirement. Most importantly - have fun!  Go to the link for Colour Dare #470 and add your entry.

I needed to make a 21st Birthday card for a friend and so I pulled out Peach Cardstock and my beautiful new Kaleidoscope Embossing FolderI put it through and it wasn't showing up enough (too subtle) so I pulled out the Sapphire Exclusive Inks™ Stamp Pad and Round Sponge and sponged the sapphire ink onto the top of the peach cardstock to have the pattern show out.

Then I put a section of Peach cardstock across the centre and a small strip of Sapphire CardstockI used Gold Glitter Paper and Classic Alphabet Thin Cuts to cut the 21 on my Big Shot machine. The sticker to finish off is "Special Day" shown below from Candid Moments Paper Packet + Sticker Sheet.
