Happy Holidays

 Good morning!


Stars, stars and more stars!!

Material List HERE

Card size:  5 1/8” X 7 5/8”.

Die cut shaped card using the Decorative Circle Frames outer die (see video). Cut the silver border using the outer die and the decorative die together.  Die cut a light blue card front from decorative paper using the outer die.  Die cut the decorative die from white and die cut a large circle from silver.  Glue the blue paper to the card front followed by the silver frame and then the white decorative die cut.  Cut another large circle from foam sheet then glue foam and silver circle to the card center.

Stamp the large star X 2, small stars and the snowflakes using clear embossing ink then sprinkle with silver powder, shake off excess, heat emboss then die cut.  Do the same process for the Happy Holidays and the poinsettias and 4 leaves.  Cut a Happy Holidays from silver. Sponge the leaves with New Sprout or other light green ink.

Shape the poinsettias and leaves in the Shaping Mold, glue at least 2 together for each flower, pierce the center of each flower then insert wired silver beaded stamen. 

Pop up large full star then also pop-up center embossed decorative snowflake in star then glue it to the silver circle.  Glue the flowers and leaves to the left side of card. Use hot glue in thick layers under the stars, flakes and the embossed Happy Holiday.  Use more hot glue to glue Happy Holidays to the silver die cut mat for words.  Use more layers of hot glue under the silver and set aside to cool.  Hot glue stars and flakes to the card as desired (the more hot glue layers the higher they will pop up). 

Add Stickles to flake centers and dots on stars, on flowers and as desired.

Last step is to hot glue the left side of raised words to the bottom section of card over flowers and star as needed.

Thanks for visiting today!
