Step 3:
Rub a metallic ink pad over the raised areas of the panel.

Step 4:
Spray a shimmer spray over the panel to give it more sparkle.

Stenciled New Year’s Card

Posted on December 23, 2024 by Imagine

Hello! Alison Heikkila here. Do you make New Year’s cards? I like to make them when it’s too late to send out Christmas, Hanukkah, etc. cards. It takes off a bit of pressure, but still shows folks we’re thinking about them. I’ve got a quick and fun card that’s perfect not just for New Year’s, but for other celebrations too.

Skill Level: Beginner-Intermediate
Time to Complete: 15-20 Minutes

By Katy Ingram –

Hello Friends! I am so excited to be back with you for another year of card making and crafting here at Imagine Crafts. I know for many, Valentine’s Day cards are in full swing, but I thought it would be fun to start the year off with something a bit different. However; this card can also be turned into a Valentine or a Mother’s Day card which gives you some versatility. In todays video I show you how to use eyeshadow brushes to color your images using Memento and Delicata Inks. I hope you enjoy the video. Thanks so much for watching.
