CUTplorations January Reminder

Hello Crafty Friends!

There is still time to play over at STAMPlorations. Their January CUTplorations Challenge is in full swing ... It's a monthly challenge requiring you to use die(s) and take inspiration from the monthly changing photo which for this month is ...

So what have we got ...

• New Year
• colours - black and gold with a touch of white
• Champagne glass
• holorgaphic texture
• fizz dots
• celebration
• festive
• new beginning

I went with black gold and fizz for a Happy Anniversary card ...

I spritzed a piece of white card with gold Artiste Spritzing ink and heat embossed the kissing couple from Funny Kinda Love using Gold Detail embossing powder. I then stamped the word Anniversary from the Sentiment Builder: Happy in black. Next I did some raised inlaid die cutting using the CUTplorations Word Die 'Happy', added a doodled border and layered on a black base card to finish ...

Pop over to the STAMPlorations Blog to see how my teamies interpreted the photo, check ou the prizes and to link up your entry too.

A little birdie told me that STAMPlorations have another TAGplorations event coming up very soon ...

That's it from me for now.
Have a lovely day!
