Today’s card is a quick one using the In Color Glimmer Paper paired with the Spruced Up Dies. Counting the Ink and Ribbon this is a four part card. It may be a record for me!
Papers
Starting with the paper may seem a bit odd as there does not appear to be a lot of paper! But that is the point. This is a quick card with Thick Basic White, some Glimmer Paper, and a regular Basic White. And that is all it took! The die cut piece is cut to 3 X 5. The three strips of Glimmer Paper are each cut 4 1/4 X 3/4. I believe this technique would work just as well with Designer Series paper scraps, or Washi Tape. I just am in love with this Glimmer Paper.
Focal Layer
The Focal Layer is the 3 X 5 Basic White piece. I stamped the sentiment, from the Brightest Glow Stamp Set, first and positioned it at the bottom of the card. It is stamped in Parakeet Party Ink. Next was the placement of the ornament die. This is from the Spruced Up Die set. There are a couple of sizes of ornaments and two trees. Any of these dies would work with this technique.
The ornament die was positioned between the top of the layer and the sentiment. After die cutting I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and with the backings still attached, put it on the card. This allowed me to find the perfect location for the Glimmer Paper strips. Once those were in place I adhered the focal layer over them. All that was left was tying a bow using the Parakeet Party Metallic Ribbon.
I hope you will give this technique a try!
