Hello everyone, Kim L. here today to share a festive winter card with you. I decided to test out the Perfect Crafting Pouch when embossing and it was fabulous! Normally, before embossing I would rub a dryer sheet over my card stock as preparation or try and get excess embossing powder off with a dry brush. The Perfect Crafting Pouch was so much better! Here is my process:
I swiped the Perfect Crafting Pouch over the acetate before embossing and the wiped off the excess powder. Then I embossed the music notes onto the acetate. I am using acetate rather than card stock because this will be a shaker card. It gave a super crisp image too!
.
At this point, I started constructing my card. I adhered the background patterned paper to my card with the Best Glue Ever, the best glue for paper crafting by far because of the amazing hold! I used double sided foam tape on my acetate to give dimension and then started embellishing. For the tiny sequins that I added, I used Embellie Gellie, my favorite pick up tool. It lasts forever!
I added an applique, a snowflake bling, and pearly white snowflake sequins inside the shaker.
I continued to embellish and added silver tinsel and blue and white seam binding as a tassel on the top corner of my card. I glued some white pom pom trim to the bottom of the card with the
Best Glue Ever. I also added a paper doily that I sprayed light blue and a sentiment to the card for more interest. I love the way it turned out:
Once the card was done, I used a small a amount of the Best Cleaner Ever on my hands for clean up. Thanks so much for stopping by, be sure to subscribe to the blog, leave a comment, and check out all of the fabulous products from ScraPerfect. To see more of my work, please stop by my blog
