Hey Crafty People!
Looking to pack a serious punch on your next project? This bold, shimmering card is all about embracing texture and shine. I used the Enchanted Alchemy Mixed Media Embossing Powders from WOW! to create a full background panel—and let me tell you, there’s no such thing as too much embossing when it looks this good!
There’s No Such Thing as Too Much Embossing!
- Cover an A2 panel of cardstock with heatproof double-sided adhesive
- Remove the release sheet and pour over Mixed Media Embossing Powder from the Enchanted Alchemy Quad.
- Heat set thoroughly from the back of the panel.
- Trim ½ inch from the top and one side, then adhere onto an A2 Neenah 80lb base with an even ?” border on all sides.
- Die cut your large sentiment from woodgrain vellum and adhere to the panel using small dots of strong liquid adhesive. You’ll see the glue—but don’t panic!
- Trim a sentiment from the Sweet Sentiments Fab Foilers. Add colour by lightly swiping over a Catherine Pooler ink pad, then gently wipe excess ink away.
- Stick this sentiment strip across your large sentiment.
- To finish: Cover all visible glue dots with flat-back silver pearls. Functional and fabulous!
Heavy texture, bold shimmer, and layered sentiment love—this design is proof that more is more! Let me know in the comments how you like to use Mixed Media Powders on your backgrounds.
…and don’t forget there’s no such thing as too much embossing!
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.
