Festive Shimmer
Sprinkle sparkle onto this luxury Christmas card!
You will need:
- Card, white
- Paper, red-spotted
- Embossing foil, silver
- Background stamp
- Embossing ink, metallics
- Embossing powder, gold
- Heat gun
- Felt, white
- Paper string, red
- Bells, gold
- Sparkly gems, gold
- Adhesives
To make:
- Use a background stamp and gold embossing ink to stamp a piece of foil. Generously sprinkle with gold embossing powder, shake off the excess, then hot emboss with a heat gun until the powder has melted.
- Cut the embossed foil into Christmas trees, or shape of your choice. Take a card blank and cover the front with spotty paper. Use pinking shears to cut white felt, a little smaller than the blank, then glue on the front.
- Fix the embossed foil shapes on top of the felt. Tie a few bells with red string into bows and glue them at the bottom of the card, then embellish with sparkly gems to finish.
