Creation Station November Hop--Specialty Papers

 

Welcome to the November Creation Station Blog Hop!

I'm glad you are here!  This month our theme is Specialty Papers--so get ready for some great inspiration. Be sure and click on the "Next" link at the end of each designer's blog to see all of our different takes on favorite Stampin' Up! specialty papers.

There is a nice variety of Stampin' Up! specialty papers to from which to choose. I chose from the shimmery, shiny ones:  The Expressions in Ink specialty designer series paper (#155464) with its bits of gold, the Gold & Rose Gold Metallic specialty paper (#156844), the 2021-2023 In Color Shimmer Vellum (#155616), the Gold Shimmer Vellum (#156471), the Brushed Metallic card stock (#153524) and the Snowy White Velvet Sheets (#156405). I embellished the cards with Simply Elegant Trim (#155766), Metallic Pearls (#146282) and 2021-2023 In Color Jewels (#155571).  I finished off all the fancy with some Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder (Metallics set, #155555).

Both cards feature the Poinsettia Petals stamp set (#153475) and coordinating Poinsettia Dies (#153522) with the same layout.  One is in greens and gold and the other in pinks and white with gold accents.  I really like how both versions turned out but, despite the tough time I had with the photos, I do think I slightly favor the pink and white card

Now head over to Denita Wright-Smee's blog.  I can't wait to see her beautiful creations this month!
