Hello lovelies - I've been a bit of a slacker for a couple of days. Well I haven't really, I've just had a lot of work on my desk which I needed to focus on.
But I hope you are all safe and well.
So the card I'm sharing today was made using the new Tonic Studios Special Occasions dies which are available over at Create and Craft or if you want to hang on, you'll be able to get them from Tonic or other retailers from 4th December, so not long now.
I've added my affiliate links at the bottom so if this is something you'd like, you can always nip over and leave your email address so you can be notified when they will ship.
For this card, I used just the largest outside edge die to create the card base, and the centre sentiment bit from the die set.
You may have noticed that it's a bit sparkly!!
Well that's because I added quite a bit of bling to it in the form of glitter.
Just to give you the heads up, Tonic have a huge sale on at the mo for all things sparkly and shiny - loads of serious bargains to be had. And again, my affiliate links to that bit on the websites are below - honestly it's worth a peek!!
I went around the edge of the frame with a glue pen.
The tip of the glue pen is perfect for this and you get a nice straight edge.
The glitter strips are just strips of double sided tape laid over the card, the backing tape removed and the glitter sprinkled on.
I think glitter card can be expensive so why not make your own!!
Finally I just went around the edge of the framed bit with some Nuvo Drops.
So there's the card and I hope you like it.
You could easily change up the colours and it'd give you a completely different look.
Right, I better get back to my shed.
Not sure if I told you this but since I am now retired and officially a layabout, I've treated myself to a crafty space in the form of a summer house.
Well that's what the sales bods called it.
I call it my shed.
If I ever get it tidy, I'll take pics and share!!
Take care and please stay safe and well. I think there's light at the end of the Covid tunnel for us all so we just have to hang on in there.
Huggiest of hugs xx
