Life has been busy as of late, I've been traveling to watch
my beloved OSU Beavers play football and spend some time spend some time with
my family in the valley. A special project that I can not share just yet
has occupied a lion's share of my creative time. Tonight I took a little break
to make this quick card, Holiday Blessings.
Supplies:
Studio Calico Snowflakes; Tsukineko StazOn Opaque Cotton White, Versa
Magic Night Sky, Imagine Crafts ink blusher; Darice Snow Swirl Embossing
Folder; Card Stock white & light blue; corner rounder; Dream Ink sentiment
stamps, acrylic blocks; Art Glitter glue; adhesive; Cuttlebug machine and
plates.
This was literally a 15-minute card, plus a little drying
time!
1.
Use an ink blusher to ink Studio Calico
Snowflake assortment with StazOn Opaque Cotton White and set aside to dry. When the Cotton White is dry, ink lightly with Versa Magic
Night Sky.
2.
Cut white card stock 4 ¼ x 5 ½. Emboss with Darice Snowflake Swirl
Embossing folder. Ink with Versa
Magic Night Sky. Round corners and
ink edges.
3.
Cut light blue card stock 4 ½ x 5 ¾, and round
corners.
4.
Cut card base to 6 x 10 and fold in half. Round corners. Use direct to paper inking to ink edges
of card with Versa Magic Night Sky.
5.
Stamp Dream Ink sentiment with Versa Magic Night
Sky and die cut with Technique Tuesday Banner.
6.
Assemble card and attach Snowflakes with Art
Glitter glue. The fine tip allows
careful placement of glue and dries clear.

Very nice card. The embossing folder and attached snowflakes blend well together
ReplyDeleteI've had the embossing folder since last winter and it fit a challenge or two so well it was time to play! The wood snowflakes needed a little ink magic, and that was a quick treatment. Thanks!
