Distress Stickles

We have SO MUCH new in the store! Lots of new Basic Grey (Offbeat, Granola, Mellow, and Urban Prairie paper pads....a few of the 12x12 Wassail papers...) and DISTRESS STICKLES!

At the request of several people, including my friend Lee (Hi, Lee!), I want to show you what the Distress Stickles look like! Now, I am not very happy with this card. I love all of the parts, but they aren't jiving as well as I had originally hoped. I think the patterned paper is what is not to my liking. Ah, well...in the interest of sharing the Stickles, I will show you... ;)

The Distress Stickles have a beach-sand kind of appearance, in my opinion. They aren't super "glittery", but they are more textured and glimmery. Again, think beach sand. Trust me, they are quite fun to use! We have all of the twelve new Distress Stickles in the store! Here is a close-up of the Stickles:

Stamps: Whimsical Birthday (Unity). Ink: Palette Noir. Paper: Hypnotic (Black Magic), Hoopla from the Okee Dokee collection (TaDa), WNP White. Accessories: Copics, Fired Brick Distress Stickles, Pop it! Shapes - Circles, Red Twill.

I like that look, it would be good on a frame stamp or a barn stamp for this color. It would give great texture for lots of the outdoor stamps I have!
hmm, boy I might need these!! lol
