Use die 3 and a sheet of patterned paper from the Festive Fancies paper pad and cut. Affix to the card using dries clear glue. Use die 4 and 7 and cut from Crystal White Pearl Card. Edge both pieces in Crystallina Sparkelicious using a glue pen. Affix both pieces to the card using foam pads.

• Take the Geometric Heart Die Set and use the detailed die and the smallest outer layer die and cut from Crystal White Pearl Card. Using the same outer die, cut from a piece of Rose Quartz Mirror Card. Attach both pieces together using dries clear glue (or a dotty tape pen for a quick stick). 

• Using the largest outer die cut from a piece of Crystal White Pearl Card. Use both outer dies and cut from Rose Quartz Mirror Card. Again attach together. Affix this heart to the too left corner of the card on a jaunty angle. And the other heart in the bottom right hand corner. 

• Take the Glitzy Snowflake stamps and stamp out 1 large and 2 menduum onto Rose Quartz Mirror Card. Heat emboss using Opaque Bright White WOW Powder and die cut using the coordinating die. Stamp 1 medium and 2 small onto Rose Quartz Pearl Card. Again heat emboss using Opaque Bright White WOW Powder and die cut using the coordinating dies. 

• Layer layer the medium pearl snowflake onto the largest mirror card one using a foam pad. Layer the smaller pearl snowflake onto the medium mirror card ones. 
• Arrange these on the heart in the top left corner and stick into place using a double layer of foam pads.

• Apply dots of dries clear glue into the background and apply some clear crystals and some iridescent crystals. 
• Add three dots of glue to the other two corners and apply clear crystals. 

• Taking the Sparkle Sentiment Builder Set. Stamp out the ‘Sparkle’ word and a matching sentiment of your choice onto Rose Quartz Pearl Card. Heat emboss using Opaque Bright White WOW Powder. Die cut the word ‘Sparkle’ using the co ordinating die and trim the other piece using a guillotine. Add to the card using a double layer of foam pads.
