Hello friends
Happy Valentine's Day!
Today I thought I would revisit a tutorial I did using Spellbinders dies
and Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Creative Sheets...
and a fair amount of glitter!
Select a die, a card creator die is best for this technique –
I used Botanical Swirls.
Remove the backing sheet from a 3D Foam Creative Sheet (keep to one side)
and stick onto a piece of white card.
On the other side, position your die template and
run through your die cutting machine to cut – no need to emboss.
This is how it will look.
Begin to remove certain sections of the layer sheet.
I chose to reveal the leaves and swirls, leaving the background in place.
Cover with glitter and then tap off the excess.
Using the backing sheet you put to one side,
lay over the glittered surface and burnish lightly with a bone folder.
You can then remove the remainder of the top layer and cover with a different colour glitter.
Again tap off the excess, burnish and your sheet is completely decorated.
I then chose to die cut with Spellbinders Classic Hearts.
My finished card.
This would work with many die designs and glitter colours.
Enjoy your Valentine's day.
Take care friends.
