How to Make Your Own Iridescent Glitter Cardstock for Valentine’s Cards or Any Occasion

Hello friends! This is Linh (or LV Handcrafted on all the socials). Why buy colored cardstock or

specialty card when you can make your own! To make solid color cardstock, just swipe a panel

of white card stock with any ink pad. However, to take it up a couple notches, use any pigment

ink. I used VersaColor Cardinal ink on my card today. Before the ink dries, cover it in Mboss

Iridescent powder. Knock off any excess back into the zip-sealed bag. Using a heat gun, melt

the Mboss powder to get this GORGEOUS iridescent shine! And voila! You’ve made your own

custom colored iridescent glitter cardstock! This technique also works with Mboss Sparkle

powder for even more sparkle and shine!

How To Create a Mixed Media Valentine

Hello Friends! Katy here and today I am using a variety of products to create this Love You card.

In today’s video tutorial I do some ink blending with VersaFine Clair Verdant and Warm Breeze. I haven’t used these two colors for ink blending before and they blended really well and the colors coordinate perfectly together. I used a heart stencil with VersaFine Clair Paradise to blend over the ink blended panel and then added some Sheer Shimmer Stix in Frost for a bit of shimmer. I also pulled out some irRESISTible Spray in Paris Dusk and Silver to create some splatter. I finished the panel off by die cutting the words love and you with some metallic blue cardstock. Check out the video to see the process in action. I hope you enjoy and thanks for stopping by.

In today’s crafting tutorial, we are going to take a quick look at the faux dip dying technique we have been seeing everywhere. We will use VersaMagic Dew Drop ink pads in three analogous colors to obtain that lovely ombre. I love this project for Valentine’s Day but really you can use it for any day, theme, and you can use the technique for a variety of projects.
