Happy Monday Everyone!! Here is the USA it is a national holiday-Memorial Day. I wish everyone in the USA a happy Memorial Day and everyone else a good day and week. This weekend has been a mixure of family time, celebrating, and yard work...no crafting...

Today I would like to share the Stamp and Create Product Spotlight. This week's spotlight is Shimmerz. Since it is the Product Spotlight, it is also 25 % off!!! What a deal!! I love the sheen and glitz it gives to projects and cards!

For my card, I used the Whiff of Joy-Henry with Broken Leg from the new Get Well Collection

I also used paper from the Basic Grey Wisteria Collection, Kaiser Craft Snow White pearls, butterfly charm, white silk ribbon, Labels 10 nestabilities and added Opal Shimmerz to the ears and cheeks and PearlZ Pearl Shimmerz on the cast and on the die cut butterfly. You may want to click on the photo to get a better view of the shimmerz.

I made this card for my sister in law who recently had surgery and is slowly recovering. I hope this brings her a smile. I incorporated the Whiff of Joy challenge which was to use Yellow and brown and one other color. My other color is blue.

Challenges:
Whiff of Joy challenge
Tuesday Throwdown-to use a stamp you can color with
Friday Sketchers
Quixotic challenge- emboss it
Stampin for the Weekend-Cheer someone up
Sew Many Challenges- Threes a charm
Pixie Dust- Go round and round- round embellishments
delightful sketches-texture-dry embossing and distressing
Your Next Stamp-Use a border punch
Flutter By Wednesday- butterfly, angel, or fairy
Crafty Creations- Use your favorite stamp- this is my fave thinking of you of recovery stamps

For more inspiration using Shimmerz, please visit my dt sisters:
Sharon, Joy, Lacey, and Jeanette.
