Now on to this weeks inspiration from the DT, gorgeous makes as always girls!!

Anjie - I've kept with the CAS these I used last time.
I have used the Winter Spruce stamp set for this card and have coloured the tree and the holly with the Permanent Green Pan Pastel. I have added some red pearls to the holly for my bling element.


I have made my background using just two colours,masking off the moon,then stamped my images with Black Archival,the main image has also be silver embossed






Claire C I've used the  black Pearl Mediums for my card, they are really blingy and give a gorgeous twinkly sparkle. I've also sealed my work with a mixture of 1/3 Maimeri Glossy Gel Medium and 2/3 water mixed in  a spritzer bottle, loads cheaper than buying fixative sprays!!








Lou: I have used the Pearlescent pan pastels and Premium Art Brand stamps to create my card. I had great fun creating the background and all the details can be found on my blog.


Products I used:


Terry I had fun making another Christmas card with lots of bling....I started out with the Shape art stencil and cut out my card, started filling it up with lots of fabby papers and on top of the paper I worked with the Stars Stencil, making stars with the Light Modelling Paste. On top of the stars I added some Coarse white Pearlescent Panpastel. I worked on the background using the Embossing Ink with the Blue Pearlescent Pans. And in the middle of the card I placed the sentiment A merry christmas to you with the Graph It Shake It White Pen. And a star from the Cardboard Craft Art was placed underneith the sentiment. The image was colored with the Graph It Markers. And to finish my card I have have placed some shiny snowflakes and the snowflakes from Dutch Doobadoo and some pearls.

The products I have worked with are:

Challenge 26 Add some bling - Pan Pastel Challenge

Welcome back to another Pan Pastel challenge!

This week we are all about the Bling - now we have the new Pan Pastel Pearlescents with the amazing Sparkle Mediums we can get even more swishy and blingy with all our Pan Pastel projects -  must confess I can't stop using the mediums and everything is all glittery and lush whether it's intended to be or not LOL!

So our challenge for  you is
Add some Bling
and you can interpret this however you wish.
You have until 16th November to enter and our Random Winner will receive a Pan Pastel goodie bag. You DO NOT have to use Pan Pastels to enter, we just want to see your creativeness! 

Let's see what the team have made for us! ....


Anjie - I've gone very CAS for this one so the stamp does all the work. I have used the Perfect Poinsettia Stamp set. I have layered the stamp up on 3D foam to really make it pop. I have coloured the Poinsettia in with the Permanent Red and Permanent Green Pan Pastels. The sentiment is from the same stamp set. The bling I have added is in the centre of the flower, I have added some gold pearls.





Tracy - Bling it on wood with Metallic Pan Pastels and Sparkle Mediums.

I used Maimeri Gesso as my base before doing a quick doodle and adding a touch of bling with the new Sparkle Mediums . . .
 I wish the photograph picked up all sparkle and shimmer! More details on my blog.
 





Doreen-I have a Christmas card today. 
I have gone over the blue sky with the Coarse Black Pearl Medium and it has given the sky a shine. The snow has had a coat of glitter,so to have the trees. I am just so sorry the photo doesn't show the shimmer.





Claire C I've had lots of messy fun making this tag using lots of goodies from Premium Craft Brands, you can find all the details on my blog. To add some bling I used lots of the gorgeous metallic PanPastels and also used them to colour some beads in the centre of the flower. I simply glued the beads in place and spritzed them with a mixture of Maimeri Gloss Gel and water before lightly brushing over some Rich Gold PanPastel





Yvonne - oh my word this theme is just up my street!!!!  I've loved making it and its been great therapy as this week, boy have I needed hope.







Terry, I have worked on a couple of Christmas Ornaments, I worked with Gesso, first layer. Second layer Christmas Papers and I have played with the Dutch Doobadoo Stencil Stars....Blinged the stars up with Metallic Pans, stickles and glitz and glimmer to finish my projects



More fabulous makes as ever!
We can't wait to see what you make for this challenge!

See you next week when we'll be announcing the winners of our last challenge!
