For this card I used a bunch of Pinkfresh Studio products and the Hampton Art Embossing powders sets, which are all available in the Scrap N' Stamp shop! I've linked all of the items at the end of this post if you're looking for them.
Instructions:
- I used the Pinkfresh Studio Leafy Branch Die and cut it 3 times out of white cardstock.
- Use the Hampton Art Embossing Powders to heat emboss add colour to each half of the branches in the following manner:
branch 1 - Blue and Purple EP
branch 2 - Red and Orange EP
branch 3 - Yellow and Green EP
Now this embossing set is really a complete set as they have these colours in two versions: one is an opaque finish and the other is opaque but with a hint of glitter. I used the one with the glitter and was going for a rainbow look!
- Use the Pinkfresh Studio Simply Hexagons Die (I linked the Simply Diamonds die too because that would work for this design as well) to cut the image out of white and Sizzix Opulent Gold Mirror cardstock
- Adhere to two hexagon backgrounds on top of each other in an offset fashion
- Thread the branches through the hexagons as you see fit, making sure they all overlap in one area
- Cut a 5" x 7" white cardstock panel and use the white glitter embossing powder from the Hampton Art set to emboss the entire panel
- Once dry use foam strips to adhere the hexagon background with the threaded branches to the glitter panel/card front
- Foil the Pinkfresh Studio Best Wishes plate in Spellbinders Polished Brass Foil and cut with the coordinating die along with a Gold Mirror cardstock shadow
- adhere the gold shadow to the back of the sentiment piece in an offset fashion
- Adhere the sentiment to the the area on the card where the branches overlap with liquid glue
- Adhere the card front to a 5" x 7" white card base
- Embellish with Pinkfresh Studio Gold Metallic Pearls
And voila! This card came together nicely and the glitter in those embossing powders on the branches and background is stunning. It's so hard to show you the sheen in the picture but I assure you that in real life this looks gorgeous!
Thanks again for stopping by and please remember to comment for your chance to win the $50 gift certificate to Scrap N' Stamp!
