Glittery Floral Card


Hello! We have a new challenge at Incy Wincy Designs. The challenge theme is Red/White/Blue +/Or Sparkly/Glitter. We have two sponsors for this challenge. I am using an image from one of our sponsors. 

I challenged myself to combine both challenge themes on my card. I printed the image on Neenah Solar White Cardstock. I colored the image using Copic markers. I die cut the floral panel using the third largest rectangle die from the Hero Arts Rectangle Nesting dies. I covered this panel with a double adhesive sheet. I ran a scraper over the panel to make sure that the adhesive is well adhered to the panel. I partly removed the backing sheet and poured Elizabeth Crafts Microfine Glitter on the exposed adhesive. I continued this process until all the adhesive is covered with glitter. Covering the glittered panel with the backing sheet, I ran the scraper again over the backing sheet, going back and forth, to make sure that the glitter sticks to the adhesive. After I removed the backing sheet, I burnished the glitter by rubbing my finger all over the panel. This type of glitter changes to a shiny finish after burnishing. I used a Swiffer cloth to remove any excess glitter.


I cut a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" red cardstock. I drew a line around the edges using a glue pen. I poured red glittered embossing powder to this and heat set it. 

I adhered the colored panel to this red cardstock panel with fun foam for some dimension. 

For the sentiment, I die cut the word 'hello' on a red cardstock and two times on white cardstock. I embossed the red sentiment die cut with the same red glitter embossing powder I used for the outline. I adhered the sentiment die cuts on top of each other. I created a supplemental sentiment strip by stamping the sentiment on the same red cardstock using Versamark ink. I heat embossed this with white embossing powder. I die cut it into a strip using an Avery Elle Simple Sentiments die. The sentiment is from Hero Arts Hello Stamps And Cuts. I adhered both to the colored panel.

Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope to see your creations at the challenge blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
