A Glowing Holiday Gift…

Posted by Jen | ABC Friday, Taylored Expressions/Stamp A Sweet Impression, projects | Thursday, October 23, 2008

Happy ABC Friday! I’m posting a little early so that you can see my creation right as the new Stamp A Sweet Impression stamps are released…yep, they are available now!

A few weeks ago the SASI Design Team chose sentiments from the new Tag Treats set to create projects with to show you today. I immediately was drawn to the sentiment that says, “Warmest Wishes for a Glowing Holiday.” I had a few different ideas swirling in my head about what to do and finally decided on a luminaria.

As taken and edited slightly from Wikipedia…A luminaria is a light or little lantern, usually a candle inside a paper lamp shade.

Here is my girly, sparkly, SASI take on it {it’s essentially a 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 box that I created into a mini latern}…

In the dark…

**Fake candle!!**

See how SPAR-KA-LAY it is {I used Stampedous Stardust EP on this}?…

And, of the course, the sentiment…

Many of the elements used in this project are from the Christmas Key Ingredients kit, which comes with tons of paper, ribbon and glitter. Taylor showed a peek of this on Thursday HERE. Want to win the kit? Check this out…
