Shiny – Creative Juice by Loni

We’ve got an eye-catching theme for the July New at SU! Blog Hop~ putting the spotlight on some of the current METALLIC products Stampin’ Up! has to make your crafting super SHINY!

Though the extreme summer weather just ended (we are happy to be down to 102º Farenheit), and as much as I enjoy this season, I’m looking forward to the crisp feel of Autumn, so I created my cards using the Changing Leaves bundle (NEW to the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusives) and the Dry Brushed Metallic Specialty Paper

Copper embossing powder for the leaf adds a second color to my mixed-metals, and a dot of Metallic Enamel Effects at the tip of each end of the sprig is the finishing touch!

It was so pretty, I made a second version! The softness of the embossed background and the separated Copper Clay Jute twine gives it an organic, woodland vibe.

Side-by-side, they reflect the details of nature- so lovely to imitate!

Don’t be too distracted by shiny objects, you’ve got more to see along the global “Make It Metallic” blog hop~ up next is Tricia with another new Online Exclusive product to get you holiday ready:

Anything that sparkles, shines or shimmers catches the eye, and the New at SU! Design team is here to show off all the new GLITZ in the September-December Catalog or Online Exclusives! Make sure you hop around the globe (links below) and PIN your favorites to remember.

The Autumn Leaves bundle is magnificent and I chose to pair it with the Online Exclusive Tartan Foil Specialty Designer Series Paper:

With a little shimmer to the colored side, it makes you want to tip and turn the card to see it reflect the light! TIP: Use the Foam Adhesive strips behind the Designer Series Paper panels to lift them off the background.

With a few Speckled dots and a double bow of linen thread, this card mixes natural and shiny elements for just the right amount of beauty. It makes me look forward to the changing seasons and colorful trees.

Keep your eyes open as you move on to another post where you’ll be dazzled by something that Shimmers, Shines or GLOWS!
