Home Made Lace Glitter Paper

Thank  you for dropping by my Craft Room today. If you want to find ways to use us some of your glitter, this is a gorgeous way to do it.  If you're  like me, you have  many containers of glitter, and need some idea's on how to use them. I did a video some time ago showing this technique, and thought I'd use this wonderful technique in a card today. With many bolts of wide lace also, I needed to use both LACE,  and GLITTER in a card project !...smiles....I think you will come up with many ways to use this LACE PAPER as well.  Have yourself a BLESSED weekend!...Enjoy

Part 2 of 2 ...Watercolour Church in the Wildwood Card

I changed some of the stamping to give this card a more vivid appearance. In the end, I think it came out just the way I visioned it.....BEAUTIFUL!......SMILES

Watercolour Technique .....Church in the Wildwood Card......Part 1 of 2

Thank you for joining me in my Craft Room today! This Whiff of Joy Church Stamp is absolutely beautiful, and it really set the scene of a "Church in the Wildwood". There were many elements to this card, starting with the fussy cutting on 81/2 x 11  Post It Note sheets,  I stamped the image on.  I used SU's "Lovely As A Tree"  Stamp Set, stamping all images first with Versa Mark, then adding to it some clear embossing powder, then,  positioning my Stamp-a-ma Jig over the clear embossed Church image, I  placed the Stayzon black ink directly on top.  Using the fussy cut Church "Post It Note" image, to set it on the stamped image, as I stamped the trees in the background. Water colouring with Tim Holtz Markers, really set the images in place using the Strathmore Water colour paper. I used Tombo Mono Multi CLEAR glue to adhere the snow glitter to the ground spaces. The roof of the Church was cut from a piece of water colour paper,  embossed with Tim Holtz "BRICK" embossing folder,  I glued it to the existing roof,  for a more 3 dimensional brick look. To add to the Christmas winter scene.  Adding the Appliqué , when heated with the heat tool, puffs up to a wonderful realistic snow affect.  Unfortunately, this card had to go into a 2 Part Video, but, the end result for me, was worth going into another part.....SMILES...I loved making this card, and filming it for you today. I hope you will watch the completion of it!......  Enjoy!
