Heart Of Christmas: Week 4

Hi!

http://clairedaly.typepad.com/sisterhood_of_the_travell/2017/06/art-with-heart-stampin-up-teams-heart-of-christmas-2017-week-4.html
 
This week's Christmas card was inspired by a desire to have a play with the new Embossing Paste and glitter. I was very pleased with the effect!


I took a piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock and use some washi to keep it and the mask in place. After applying the paste, I removed the mask and sprinkled with Gold glitter straight away. I set it aside to dry while I finished the rest of the card.


The paste does a great job of holding the glitter in place. The edges are nice and crisp, except where I need to get a paint brush in to remove the extra glitter!


I used a strip of Gold Glimmer paper to finish the inside. The Basic Black Baker's twine was a great way to tie it all together.

If you'd like to see what the other ladies in the Art With Heart team have created this week, pop on over to Claire Daly's blog. You'll find links to everyone's blogs there.

Bye for now,

Tina

    Stunning, glittery card Tina. I am still to use my embossing paste, but I love how you added the glitter to it and it sticks!
