This is a card I have cased from Bev who designs for There She Goes. They are having a farewell party for her and other designers who are leaving the design team. Here is her card I cased: Merry Bajambug by BevMom at Splitcoaststampers
I made this card using Dream Weaver Metallic Silver Paste. First I taped down the brass template of the trees onto black cardstock. Then I mixed Art Instistue Glitter called Glacier with the silver paste. I applied the paste using a palette knife over top of the template. I removed the template and let the paste dry. I then trimmed the cardstock close to the dried paste and attached an opaque silver and white glittery ribbon. I mounted it on edge distressed white cardstock and then again on a black card.
I stamped the Merry Christmas on a muted metallic silver paper using Stazon jet Black. I pierced two of the corners and attached a dull silver snowflake. I didn't want a shiny snowflake to take away from the sparkle of the card. I mounted the silver cardstock to black and then popped it up off the card front.
The card does not come close to really showing how beautifully glittery it is. It just sparkles and glistens in real life!
Accessories: palette knife, Dream Weaver Metallic Silver Paste, Art Institute Glacier #211 Glitter, small bowl for mixing paste, snowflake brad, ribbon, pop dots, piercing tool, mat & template, scissors
