Both of my card shares for the hop use stamps from the set named Christmas Flamingo ( #343)., which is on sale this month too :) I added some pink glittery snowflakes, (made with Sticker Paper (99558) and Shell Pink Glitter (G1022)) and some seam binding ribbon for embellishments.
And this photo shows off the Waterscape Glitter (G1108) I used on his santa hat and the embossed sentiment using Sangria (EP420) embossing powder.
This snowman reflects how I feel after the new year...lol! When the holidays are over, and we are knee deep in snow and freezing temps, I want to head south too :)
Here I want to highlight a cool new product named Mudd Puddles, being carried at Sparkle N Sprinkle. I used Blizzard Beach for my snow, and it added a great bit of grainy texture to my card. Easy to use too, just scoop it out of the jar, put it where you want and let it dry. Comes in loads of colors as well.
Full details for both cards can be found in my gallery right here.
Do you love glitter, stamps and embossing powder? If so, Sparkle N Sprinkle is having a DESIGN TEAM CALL! Check out all of the details here.
And a personal thank you and shout out to my friend Cheryl, I finally got around to using some of the paper I won in her giveaway awhile ago....I especially love how cute the pink non holiday paper looks on the first one!

All the colors on the first card are a great change from traditional holiday colors - looks great. And the mudd puddles on the second are perfect! Love them both!

Love your cards!!! Perfect for FL.
Your cards are amazing! My favorite is the flamingo with all that pink sparkliness!
I LOVE your flamingo card! The papers do look great here. The image is so cute and the glitter is the perfect touch.
You know I have a weakness for snowmen so I also love your 2nd card. This little guy is too cute. I love how you used the glitter to create the stripe and the snowflake accent. I almost never break out my glitter because I always seem to get it everywhere.
Wonderful cards my friend! Thank you for the shout out. I'm glad you could put some of those papers to good use. :)
Thank you for using stamps I own. Now, I have some ideas to try. I love the pink and green with the flamingo and the red glitter on the other card.
Both your cards are wonderful! I love all the sparkly embellishments! great job!
These cards are great! I love the flamingo! And Florida or Bust--LOVE IT! :)
I have always liked that flamingo stamp - - - and I really like the way you used it. REally unusual colors for Christmas, but fun. Great use of elements on the second card as well.
Karin, love the flamingo! Such pretty colors and the other card is very pretty also.
Love the non-traditional colors you used on the flamingo card and the "bling" just made it pop...lots of fun texture and dimension. The traditional colors on the snowman card are great too...both cards are beautiful.
I just love flamingos. Wish I could color like that. Like your use of bling and texture. Alice L.

LOL! As always, Karin, your creations bring a smile to my lips and heart and sometimes I outright chuckle, as I imagine you in the process of assembling the cards with the perfect i for papers, and the amazing coloring job you always manage to accomplish. Since I'm a Floridian, I especially enjoy your "in the pink" take on the flamingo, and the use of mudd puddles in the snowy card, with the lovely layer shapes. xo
I like the pink glittery snowflakes & how you colored the flamingos & ornaments on your first card. The Mudd Puddles look great with the snowman on your second card.
Damn fine cards, Karin! I love that pink and all the sparkle. You really are the queen of shimmer & shine :) The Snowflake Flower is stunning on your Florida or Bust card. The mudd puddles look really cool!
I just love your Flamingo, all decked out for the holidays. Great, nontraditional colors. A fun card.
The snowman card is also darling...my exact feeling when the weather turns cold.
Karin love your cards but the snowman card is my favorite he is adorable.
the flamingo is adorable! Thanks
