January 19th is the next meeting of the Cards a Latte group. We will meet at 10AM at the Local Bean coffee shop in Hudson NC. We will be making 4 cards and some fun folds.
There is nothing better than spending an afternoon creating cards with rubber stamps. Heaven on earth. A cup of coffee with this helps add even more to the experience.

December 2023 NC Demos Blog Hop
Welcome to the NC Demos Blog Hop, we are here the last Sunday of each month and are so glad you could join us this evening. The theme for this month is "Bling in the New Year" I love adding bling to my cards and this one was so much fun to do
I decided to use new product that will be released on January 4th and of course plenty of BLING.
My card base is Highland Heather cut 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 and scored at 4 1/4.
Then I took a piece of White 5 x 4 and added Highland Heather Glimmer DSP and White Textured DSP to it these pieced we cut 5 x 2 and glued to the white piece and in the middle I add a piece of Highland Heather Grosgrain ribbon. There is bling in the glimmer paper, the textured paper and even in the ribbon but I did not stop there.
I cut a piece of the Perennial Lavender DSP 2 x 3 3/4 and colored the flowers in with Wink of Stella and put this piece on a piece of Highland Heather 2 1/4 x 4 and added this to the center of the card with dimensionals.
I then die cut in Lost Lagoon the leaves and the flowers in Highland Heather before I added them to the card I also put on some Wink of Stella. You can never have enough Stella.
I then added a tag in Lost Lagoon and stamped the sentiment in Lost Lagoon and added it to the card with dimensionals.
To add more Bling a made a bow out of the White Glittered Organdy ribbon and added it and to finish it off I attached 3 Purple Fine Shimmer Gems. More Bling.
Thank you so much for stopping by this evening and please make sure to visit all the other blogs on this month's hop and see all the other bling.
Happy New Year be safe and see you next month
