Long-time stamper Darla Copmann shared some super simple ATCs with us

Hello All,

Long-time stamper Darla Copmann shared some super simple ATCs with us.  She stamped images from artist New Mexico artist Jo Rango onto heavy white cardstock and embellished the images with our Glitter Dots.  Darla's favorite is the "Phrog" but we like all of them.   Rango Zoo stamps are from Red Castle, Inc. 

Judi Kauffman for CardMaker Magazine

Designer Judi Kauffman continues to indulge her passion for Glitter Dots peel-offs! She sent us a variation of the project she did for CardMaker Magazine to share with you.

This time, instead of two circles of leaves there is only one. She outlined one of the card stock background rectangles with Pen-touch in Gold (Sakura). She added rows of Glitter Star Border peel-offs in Silver at the top and bottom (http://www.ecraftdesigns.com/p​roducts/glitter-stars-border). And instead of a layered die-cut flower she chose a large Elizabeth Craft Designs outline peel-off in Gold (http://www.ecraftdesigns.com/p​roducts/big-flowers), backed with Shimmer Sheetz in Light Green Iris (http://www.ecraftdesigns.com/p​roducts/green-iris-3-pack). A generous crusting of Glitter Dots (http://www.ecraftdesigns.com/p​roducts/glitter-dots-assorti) provides added sparkle. For full instructions on how to make the original card, look at Judi's article, Holiday Cards that Shimmer, in the September 2011 issue of CardMaker, pages 56-58.
