To start off today's Video Hop, let's visit Lydia's Crafty Corner!
Hello there, Lydia here! Today, I'll be sharing a fun way to add a touch of glitter to your floral card designs and die-cuts.
To start, I placed the second stencil from Dynamic Duo: Paradise Flowers over a piece of vellum. I inked through this using embossing ink, and then heat set using Pure White Embossing Powder. I then used the coordinating die set to cut out the whole leaves and flowers from the embossed vellum.
To ‘color' the images I cut out the same dies again this time using glitter cardstock.
I used Jadeite from the Glitter Gradient Cardstock Set – Forest Canopy for the leaves and Sparkling Water, Shimmering Lake, and Dioptase from the Glitter Gradient Cardstock Set – Shimmering Shore for the flowers.
Then, I adhered the embossing vellum die-cuts onto the glitter die-cuts, off-setting them so the glitter could peek out from behind.
For the background, I did a little ink smooshing using Ocean Waves Ink. It has been a while since I used this technique for my floral card designs. I'm not sure why – it's so fun and easy to do!
To add a little more interest, I added a patterned strip from the Black & White Essentials 6×6 Paper Pack. The sentiment, meanwhile, is from the Sentiment Strips Stamp Set.
To see how this card came together, please watch the video below, or head on over to YouTube for more floral card designs with a twist:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
