As we approach the New Year, I want to celebrate 2013! I have so much to be thankful for and I definitely want to acknowledge that! I have received so many comments from you guys and I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your kind words! It makes me so happy to know that you enjoy my blog and StampAcademy Classes! That really makes the work so much more rewarding! Look for some new things in 2014 as I grow personally and professionally. I wish each of you a New Year filled with joy and peace and surrounded by people you love. (Don't forget to comment for a chance to win BLOG CANDY!)
Today's card uses some goodies from the new Occasions Mini Catalog which goes on sale January 3rd! Of course, I will have a new Online Class ready for you showing the many uses of the products shown in that catalog. If you're looking for something specific, let me know! I'm planning all the new classes and I can certainly incorporate some of your ideas!
It's Clean and Simple Week here at StampsAndScrapbooks.com! I love the shiny-ness of the new gold products – foil paper, washi tape, velllum and sequins! The base card is Whisper White Cardstock 4 1/4" x 11" scored and folded in half. The top corners were rounded on both the card and the next layer. The next layer is 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" of Whisper White Cardstock. The Gold Fancy Foil Designer Vellum is cut at XXXXXX and the top corners were rounded as well. Watercolor Wonder Washi Tape was used to secure the vellum and Glue Dots were placed under a couple of the "dots" to adhere it as well. (Adhesive shows through Vellum so you want to hide it.)
a 1 /4" Circle Punch was used to punch out 3 circles from Gold Foil Cardstock. They were adhered to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. Two stamps from Starburst Sayings Stamp Set were stamped in Versamark Ink and embossed with Gold Embossing Powder and a Heat Tool. They were cut using the Starburst Framelits (LOVE coordinating products!) and adhered to the top of the circles using Stampin' Dimensionals. The center of the top one was accented with one of the Gold Sequins. The bottom stamped design was accented with a little strip of Gold Sequin Trim that I adhered using Glue Dots.
All supplies are Stampin' Up! and can be found in my ONLINE STORE.

I have only seen your work since these last few months and I love what you do. If I needed to pick a favourite card (almost impossible to do by the way!) I would go for metal madness day 3, I love the autumn colours and the shiny leaves on this card. You do fabulous work!
Oh love the clean and simple look yet the gold packs such a punch…creative and beautiful
Like Ang I find it hard to pick a favorite, but since autumn colors are my favorites, I also vote for the autumn leaves.
Thank you from the heart of Texas for sharing your creativity and blessings for a year of health, happiness and love.
