Spray a shimmer spray over the panel to give it more sparkle.

Let’s Make a New Years Card

By Anna Escalada York

Today I wanted to share a card with you featuring

Skill: Intermediate
Time: 1.5 hours

Directions:

Step 1:
Spray Frost Sheer Shimmer Craft Spray onto a piece of white watercolor paper and set aside to dry.

Step 2:
Trim a piece of gray watercolor paper to 4” by 5.25” with a paper trimmer. Then spray the panel and the inside of an embossing folder with more of the Frost Sheer Shimmer Craft Spray, place the gray watercolor panel inside of the embossing folder and then run the embossing folder through a die cutting machine. Allow the panel to dry.

Step 3:
Gently run a Teal Zeal Memento Ink pad across both of the embossed stars and around the edges of the panel. Using a small sponge dauber (or your finger), spread some shiny GlazOn onto both of the embossed stars to “lock in” the teal color.

Step 4:
Using a sponge dauber, ink blend Paris Dusk Memento ink around the panel (not on the stars).

Step 5:
Die cut letters to form the sentiment out of the the sprayed white cardstock from step 1.

Step 6:
Spray the panel with more of the Frost Sheer Shimmer Craft Spray and allow it to dry. Then glue the letters from the sentiment onto the lower right corner of the panel.

Step 7:
Glue the panel onto an A2-sized white card base.
