Hello everyone! Welcome to Iron Craft!! Its the 20th episode today. Can you believe it? 20?!! Before you know it, it will be 25 soon… hmm gotta think up something special for that one.
But today’s episode is a whole lotta fun too!
Have you ever stamped an image and thought to yourself “Wow! I wish I could shake hands with the creator of this stamp!”? I have! Infact I think of this for every stamp set I create with. And today is one of my dream-come-true moments when I get to have a virtual-handshake with the creator of some stamps I like! AND she is the owner of the company that makes the stamps too!! So if you want to have a virtual-handshake with my guest today… go ahead and shake hands with Danielle Walls!
Danielle has a cool, doodley style of stamps and makes the cutest stamps for her company Neat and Tangled! I have been seeing N&T creations everywhere and recently they were featured on Moxie Fab World as well! How cool is that?!
Can you guess what set we are playing with today? 😉 Hinh: I already gave you the hint!
We are playing today with a stamp set and another ingredient, both of which I can only describe as “classic N&T”! I couldn’t have been happier when I saw the set Danielle chose for our challenge!
We are using the Sparkle and Shine set from Neat and Tangled today!
And we are using sequins!
Here is what we made with them…
As usual, my card is to the left and Danielle’s to the right.
I love the color scheme on Danielle’s card! So balanced and fun isn’t it? And the little piece of gray cardstock to create a shadow? Genius!
Wondering why there is a reed stick poking out of my card? Its a twister card! I was inspired by my friend Anat for creating this one. Don’t you just love it when an idea comes to you and then your card turns out exactly as visualized? 🙂
Here is another photo of my card showing the other side of the twister…
Wanna see the twister in action? Here you go…
Make sure you visit the Neat and Tangled blog to read on Danielle’s card! But before you go, there is a giveaway ofcourse! 😉
Danielle is sponsoring a giveaway of the Sparkle and Shine set! Thanks Danielle and Neat and Tangled!!

I have been enjoying this feature so much. You are introducing me to stampers and stamp lines that i have not been seen sometimes. Love the fun stamps you both used, and the layout of Danielle’s card. I am always amazed how different the two cards turn out. Love the fun spinning in your card. Very cool! My favorite bling seems to change often. Currently I am using a lot of Wink of Stella!
