Hey Crafty People!
I’m still exploring my Glimmer and all of the gorgeous things that I can make with it! Think of it as my own adventures in foiling! (I am working on a video for it, I’ll get that up asap!)
I’m also exploring different brands that I wouldn’t usually work with, thanks to My Perfect Stamp, so this Holiday card includes lots of new & fun things! (For me, at least!)
For a super simple & quick Poinsettia, I stamped the largest image onto some Cherry Red cardstock using my InkOn3 Blackout ink.
I also stamped a few of the leaves from the same stamp set, onto Emerald Isles cardstock.
This gives me a base colour for my images, which just speeds everything up, so much!!! It’s really, such an efficient way to colour!
Once the ink had time to dry, I used a single red and a single green Copic to add some shading onto the images.
I don’t have the die, so I fussy cut the images and set them aside whilst I worked on my background.
Adventures In Foiling
So far, I think that the Matte Gold foil may just be my favourite; I absolutely love the way it adds a more subtle shine to projects.
These Brushstroke Plates are amazing, paired with the matte foil for the perfect backdrop to my Poinsettias. The foil elevates what could be a very simple card and just makes it something more.
I used some panel dies from my stash to cut the foiled panel down and matted it onto a larger die cut panel of Rusty cardstock.
I really like the small sentiments that come in the Poinsettia stamp set, so I chose a simple Merry Christmas.
Some foam adhesive behind my focal images and a a few of these gorgeous sequins finish the card beautifully.
Hey Crafty People!
Please be aware:
As part of my Design Team and Guest Design work I do often receive free products to use, but I only ever recommend products that I genuinely love.
Also, I know how incredibly lucky I am to have these opportunities, but you don’t always NEED the newest products or the ‘full set’.
So please don’t feel that you need everything.
I like to show a variety of brands and products; this way there will be something for everybody to enjoy.
