Build a Wreath Christmas Card Instructions:
Step 1
Cut a piece of white card, just smaller than 8″ x 8″ and using the Chisel Tip Glue Pen, glitter the edges with the Brilliance Sparkelicious Glitter. Then, layer onto 8″ x 8″ base card.
Step 2
After that, cut slightly smaller than your white card and lay on top of this, a piece of the blue bubble paper from the new 12″ x 12″ Christmas Pad.
Step 3
Then, repeat this process, however, this time reduce the size, to 7″ x 7″ for example. Once you’ve dont that, mat and layer at an angle using double-sided foam pads.
Step 4
Moving on, cut a piece of white card in to 6″ x 6″. Place in the Build a Wreath folder and run through your die cutting machine. Once removed, ensure all pieces of the wreath are cut into the card.
Step 5
Next, glitter the holly leaves with the Sparkelicious Glitter in Twinkle Twinkle and cover the snowdrops (the background) with Brilliance and Radiant Sparkelicious Glitters.
Step 6
Once you’ve glittered until your heart is content, mat and layer this onto blue mirror card and then onto the white card which you have glittered the four edges using the Brilliance Sparkelicious Glitter.
Step 7
Using the Stamps by Chloe Christmas Bow and Accessories Stamp and Die – Stamp the bow and heat emboss using the Metallic Silver embossing powder.
Step 8
Line the coordinating die up witht he stamped image and run through your die cutting machine. Then, using the Dries Clear Glue, cover the inside of the bow and sprinkle with Aurora Sparkelicious Glitter. Place to one side to allow drying time and simply attach it to your car once it’s dry.
Step 9
Lastly, die-cut the elements you desire to use from the Cut and Emboss set and glue into place.
