Had to make an extra special card for some of my rockstar Stampin' Up team members this week, and picking the adorable Sunny Days stamp set was a no-brainer. The sayings in that set are perfect for go-getters!
The layout is very basic, so I used the fun new Shimmer embossing paste and the cloud stencil from Pattern Party to create a gorgeous, sparkly background on Pool Party cardstock. The paste goes on in a very thin layer, so it was dry and ready to be used in about 15 minutes.
I took another stab at the angle to see if I could get the shimmer to show up better. You can't believe how gorgeous this stuff is in real life! And then I added event more bling with the new Silver & Pool Party Baker's Twine. So fun to have new colors.
I hope my recipients LOVE their cards as much as I love making them. If you want to recreate this look at home, here's what you'll need:

Thanks so much for popping in to see me today! Stop to smell the roses… take a walk….and buy the lukewarm, sticky lemonade from the budding entrepreneur on the corner. It's the little things that make life good.
You got the angle right for seeing the shimmer in the embossing paste. The card looks really cute.
Very cute. Love the post especially the last paragraph. Your recipients will love this. I think I need to play with the paste sometime. I had missed the new color of twine. Thanks for all your inspiration.
