One more glitter card because I just could not stop! I love this background die from My Favorite Things, and it’s so fun using glitter paper with that die.
That word die “Christmas” is embossed with glitter powder on the bottom and watercolored with distress inks on the top.
This card was easy and a whole lot of fun to put together!
I love glitter paper. Yep. I have a whole drawer just dedicated to glitter paper. So when the Holiday Card Class had a day devoted to shimmer and shine, I brought out the glitter!
See that red glitter ampersand? It’s my favorite.
I played around with some distress markers for the merry word and bright word. It’s fun to try and blend two different colors. I added some glossy accents for shine. A few sequins and done!
So. Fun. And merry. (and bright). 🙂
Well Hello! I’m back with some Christmas cards to share. After a big move, my daughter and her family (including 2 granddaughters) moving in with us, my mother-in-law having a stroke, and my grandmother passing away, I am FINALLY back to posting on my blog. Whew.
A big thank you to Online Holiday Card Class 2015 for inspiring me to get back at it!
My first card is clean and simple:
It’s hard to see in this picture, but there a little glittery snow in the background. I love this die edge and it’s the first time I’ve used it!
I was inspired by Julie Ebersole for the snow. I used a glue pad and some Stickles dry glitter over the top. I’m loving this class and so glad I could participate!
First, stamp your stamp on masking paper. Then air brush (or use distress ink) to color the background. Remove masks, stamp your image….and Voila! This card turned out cute, I think:
I popped up the sun near the bottom of the card…just for a little fun. 🙂
I was waiting for these flower dies to come in just so I could try this technique by Kristina Werner.
