Oh it's been the Monday-est of Mondays (for those wondering it's not a holiday here - I'm Canadian. Memorial Day is today for all my US friends - for Canadians we have Remembrance Day November 11 where we honour our veterans and troops (tho they deserve recognition and honour 24/7/365 in my opinion)).
Anywho - it's been a crazy Monday but I was finally able to get this video edited and uploaded to share with y'all. I actually have been meaning to make a bunch of coffee-themed projects as the Spring/Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop started on Friday and only lasts a week - but of course I'm so behind on everything. Stay tuned though as I have a really long video coming with a giveaway too...... 😉😉
So Kristina Werner posted a card and video a few weeks ago where she used a stencil with glitter pastes over foil/mirror card stock. I just LOVED it (I love everything she creates) and I've been wanting to have a go at that ever since. I recently got my hands on a bunch of Tonic's Mirror card stocks (heaven!!) so I pulled out 3 of them along with 3 of Tonic's Glimmer Pastes and combined them with some of Simon Says Stamp's stencils and stamps and dies.
I die cut the Big Thanks word from white card stock that I backed with vellum, and added Crystal Glaze to to give it some dimension and shine. The sentiments are from SSS's Thanks Words stamp set and I white heat embossed those onto black card stock.
As a final embellishment I added a few Studio Katia Iridescent Clear Crystals that I adhered with dabs of Ranger's Multi Medium Matte adhesive.
I finished off the insides of the cards by stamping the big thanks word with various SSS inks and that was it!
To see how these cards came together check out my video below:

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the products have little icons below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. You can hover over the icons and it will tell you what store that link will take you to. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!
I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
