4 Ways to add Shine to your cards

Hello! I have a quick card share today using products from the Hedgehog Hollow October Kit. When you create a simple card, there are some easy ways to add an extra “WOW” and I’m sharing 4 ways today!

4 Ways to add WOW

1. Specialty Paper – for this card I chose some navy PEARLIZED paper, it has a pearly shine and really gives a magical feeling to the card. If you are a Hedgehog Hollow subscriber, you might recognize this paper from last month’s kit.
2. Glitter Embossing Powder – when you stamp with clear ink, you can add any embossing powder. For this card, I used an iridescent glittery embossing powder that furthers the WOW factor.
3. Vellum Elements – Vellum is a subtle yet powerful way to add some elements for a great look. Here I die cut some snowflakes out of vellum. Make sure to adhere the vellum so your adhesive can be hidden! (Watch my video for more on this).
4. Gemstones – gemstones are another way to add shine to your card. Here I used iridescent gems to the center of the vellum snowflakes. Not only does this add more shine, but it also hides the adhesive on the vellum!
