Hi Everyone, today I am sharing some
Festive Inspiration using the new Royal Scandinavian Doily from Cheery Lynn Designs for my DT card.
I die cut out my Doily and Corners and heat embossed with
a Gold Tinsel Embossing Powder, layering on to my patterned cardstock.
Next I started to cut out my Candlelight die 3 times, so
I had plenty parts to build up my layers for texture. My foliage was shaded
with Copics, shaped on my embossing mat and layered up a few times. My
Poinsettia was also shaded with Copics, layering in my shaped petals and adding
a little Gold Flower Soft to the centre.
My candles were layered twice. On the top section I
brushed on some Beeswax which I had melted in my Meltpot. I then added some
drips of wax and once set highlighted with Gilding Wax. My flames were shaded
with Copics and some Glossy Accents added onto them.
I do hope you have enjoyed my techniques and feel
inspired to try them out on your die cuts.
Thanks for stopping by today.
