Please let me hear from you!

This blog is for sharing a love of paper crafting. I love paper crafting -
and Stampin' Up! products in particular -
so much so, that I became an independent Stampin' Up!®™ demonstrator earlier this year!
Full disclosure: I get a small commission on purchases made using Stampin' Up! links from this website - but this in no way affects your price. It just serves to help support my blogs. Thank you in advance for that support!

As of January 21, 2026, most of my Stampin' Up! makes are moving to
https://cheringloveofpaper.blogspot.com/, with makes from other materials here.
Enjoy browsing my blogs, and I'd love to hear from you.
It is what helps make the time I put into these blogs feel worthwhile, and always brightens my day.

Metallic Sympathy

I find it really hard to get good pictures of metallic cards.  This one isn't too bad, but the sentiment is a bit blurry - sorry.  

Anyway, this card is pretty straight forward.  The sentiment and border around it were stamped onto a dark blue glimmer paper with a Stamp and Punch set of stamps from HOTP before being embossed with gold embossing powder.  This is cut close to the border and then matted on a white die-cut piece (Spellbinder's die).  The border behind it is actually a piece of grosgrain ribbon, though it's hard to tell in the picture. This is put on the metallic patterned paper (HOTP) before being matted on more blue glimmer paper.
