Designer’s Tip: Combine black cardstock with Perfect Pearls to highlight the embossing!

Instructions:

  1. Card front: Cut a 12”x6” black cardstock. Position horizontally, score the center and fold to create a 6” square card. Place your card with the fold on the left. Cover with Gold Hammered paper
  2. Cut a 6” square of black cardstock. Use the Christmas Present die to die cut the image. Carefully place the rubber mat over the paper, and run through again to emboss the image. Remove the inner label cut-out. Place the cutting die over the embossed image and use Perfect Medium™ to ink the bow sections on the cardstock. Remove the cutting die and brush Turquoise Perfect Pearls™ over the inked areas. Use the smaller brush to remove any excess Perfect Pearls™. Place the cutting die back over the embossed area and ink all the remaining embossing. Remove the die and brush Gold Perfect Pearls™ over all of the areas. Brush away the excess (you can also use an eraser to remove any stubborn gold areas). Spray a fine mist of water over the entire surface to set the Perfect Pearls™. Glue to the card center, and foam tape the inner label to the center. Use Corner Chompers to round the corners of a 2” square photo, and glue to the center. Place “Congratulations” Dazzles™ on a 3¾"x3/4” black cardstock, and mat on Hammered Gold paper with 1/16” borders. Foam tape to the bottom and embellish with Gold Jewel Dazzles™ as shown.
  3. Card inside: Place gold Dazzles™ as shown.
