First I made an 8 x 8 card in Teal by cutting 20cm x 20cm sq
and 20cm x 23cm
score and join on the reverse
Matting & Layering:
19.5cm sq Ivory Card
19cm sq Teal Card
18.5cm sq Ivory Card
Then attach all these flat to the card.
Once this was dry I cut a piece of the Self Adhesive Sheeet to 18cm sq.
After carefully removing the backing sheet, after carefully removing the backing sheet I covered the card with Micro Beads. ( I used a shallow box for this then poured the surplus beads back into the jar). I then attached this to the card.
Sentiment:
Using the 2 largest dies I cut these out in Ivory and backed onto Teal Card.
With the 3rd largest I cut this out in Ivory and stamped the Sentiment using Decadent Teal Colour Cloud Ink. Then attached these to the card using pads.
Finishing Touches:
Using dies Create-a-Flake 3 I cut several out in both Ivory and Teal, shaped and attached to the card. Then added a small Dazzler to centres.
Making a triple bow and swags with Teal Seam Binding I attached this to the card and added a Medium Dazzler.
Finally I edged around the outer edge of the sentiment with Decadent Teal Twinkles and Glamour Dust around the inner and snowflakes.
