Hopping With Melanie's Square Pegs!!!!!

Smiley from millan.netSmiley from millan.netSmiley from millan.net

It's a fun and fabulous Gina K. Designs hop..........to showcase the ever-talented Melanie and her newest adorable stamp set, Square Pegs!!!!!! Now, this was designed specifically to go with her Hip To Be Square....but it also goes beautifully with her Inspiration Mosaic!!!!



I stamped Inspiration Mosaic onto some pearlescent dp I had.....then stamped the heart image over it and glittered them up while the ink was still wet......can't get enough glitter for sparkly hearts ya know!!!! LOL I used the new Gina K. Pure Luxury Innocent Pink along with Mother Of Pearl......lots of shimmer and soft pink!!!! I then stamped the XOXO image and made a background tag and layered the Fancy Tags Nesties with oval punches for the sweet little sentiment!! Now.......I was going to add pearls all over........but, well......I decided for a change to use my "edit" button and let the shimmer cardstock and glitter be the stars!!! LOL

So pretty Lee! What type of ink did you use for the hearts and what type of glitter? I really like that look but I'm not clear on how the glitter "sticks" to the hearts....little thick here!! LOL!! Love our card honey! It's just lovely. Hugz from Winnipeg!! :^D
