How to make this project -
- Score and fold the A3 card in half (21cm) place the largest circle die from the set just overlapping the score line and die cut, score the front part in half and bring forward to make an easel card, die cut a piece of white card with the same size die and attach to the brought forward piece of the base card.
- Using the second die in the set cut two circles in Silver Mirror card from the Sparkling Christmas Mirror Card Pad, die cut two circles with the third die in the Lapis Lazuli Luxury Pearl card, one circle in gold Mirror card from the Sparkling Christmas Mirror Card Pad using die number 11 and one in silver glitter card from the Sparkling Christmas Glitter Card Pad using die number twelve.
- Mat and layer the silver mirror card to the top and bottom of the base card, glitter all around the Lapis Lazuli die cut circles with Glass Slipper Sparkelicious and attach to base card, secure the gold mirror card and silver glitter card circles to the bottom of the base card.
- Die cut the Poinsettia in the Fine gold and Crystal White Luxury Pearl card and assemble together, glitter the middle of the flowers and medium size pearls with Art Glitter Glue, Salted Caramel and Diamante Sparkle Sparkelicious, when dry attach the pearls to the middle of the flowers.
- Stamp, heat emboss, die cut and glitter a mixture of foliage from the Sprigs and Twigs and Winter Foliage Stamp and Die Sets using the Silver Dollar and Twinkling Lights Embossing Powders.
- Where I have stamped with the Silver Dollar, I have glittered the foliage with a gold glitter i.e. Salted Caramel and Sunset Boulevard and where I have stamped with Twinkling Lights, I have glittered with Glass Slipper, Boogie on Down and Diamant Sparkle Sparkelicious.
- Arrange the foliage and flowers around the circle and secure into place, tie and fix the bow onto the top of the circle and place the large glittered jewel in the middle, dot the Art Glitter Glue inside of the circle and glitter with Glass Slipper Sparkelicious.
- Cover a small piece of white card with the double sided sticky sheet and cut the sentiment from the Merry Christmas Stamp and Die Set, peel off the top and cover with Diamante Sparkle Sparkelicious.
- Die cut the other two parts of this set in the Lapis Lazuli and Fine Gold Luxury Pearl Card, mat and layer together and secure in place with foam pads, arrange the foliage and flower near the sentiment and secure in place with Pinflair.
