Welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle
Christmas In July 🎄🎅🤶 New Reveal Blog Hop!
(where apparently, I'm dreaming of a white and gold one!)
We have six new Christmas themed rubber stamp sets plus two huge digi bundles being revealed this month.
The sets are:
(Digital Version DIGI862B - huge digi bundle)
When you purchase the digi versions of any of the SNS rubber sets, you are getting lots of extras that aren't available otherwise. These extras include additional images not available with the rubber version, digi papers (in some cases), and now a cut file to use with your electronic cutting machines will also be included with all digi images purchased!
You're definitely going to want both the rubber versions as well as the digi versions of all our new releases.
The new sets are 20% off until July 20, 2017. So once you finish the blog hop, head on over to the New Store and start shopping.
On July 18th, ONE GRAND PRIZE WINNER will be selected from the comments left on the Designers' blogs listed below. Please leave a comment with each Designer in order to be eligible for the Grand Prize. You never know who the Mystery Designer will be that has the winning comment.
The Grand Prize Winner, which will be announced on the SNS Facebook page and the SNS Blog, will receive ALL of the new rubber stamp sets revealed this month.

Then I stamped the larger image three times in
Versamark and heat embossed again with the
Gold Detail.
I then fussy cut the actual Poinsettia flowers with my
Tonic 5" Mini snips. These scissors cut beautifully and they don't get gunky with adhesive which is their best attribute!
I cut the sentiment with the Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circles and then started to arrange the flowers above and below the sentiment, some attaching with
1/4" Tear-ific Tape and others with Mounting Foam, to give it more dimension.
I used a freebie Poinsettia embossing folder that I received with a magazine. After running the white cardstock through the machine, I sponged on some
Indian Gold Nuvo Embellishment Mousse, just to give it some gold highlights.
This was then layered on to
Gold Mirror Cardstock. This is difficult to photograph, but looks really nice in real life!
Hope you liked my project and are enjoying seeing the team's creations with this month's fun sets. Next on the hop is our talented Jess.
Here is a shopping list of all the SNS products used in my card today:
