Cheers!
Good morning! Jess here with a holiday card using some fun new products from Lawn Fawn!
I started by blending distress inks onto a piece of white cardstock. I used dried marigold, abandoned coral, picked raspberry, and festive berries. Next I pressed my versamark pad all over the inked background and then heat-embossed it with clear hologram sparkle embossing powder. This is hands-down my most favorite embossing powder in the whole wide world! And did you see the amazing collection of Wow embossing powders that are coming to MarkerPop in a few short days!! 😉 I have yet to find one of their powders I don’t love! Seriously, though…just check out that sparkle!
Next I die-cut the Lawn Fawn String of Lights from white cardstock and silver glitter cardstock. I added spectrum noir clear sparkle all over the white cardstock and then added a thick layer of glossy accents and set it aside (for hours) to dry completely. I wish you could see just how sparkly the lightbulbs are with the spectrum noir clear sparkle. Once the lightbulbs were dry I adhered the silver tops and adhered them to the background panel.
Then I die-cut the Scripty Cheers with black cardstock, pressed a versamark pad over it, and heat-embossed it with the same clear hologram sparkle embossing powder before adhering it to the background. Finally I adhered it to a black panel and adhered it that to a white card base! Everyone has that one friend who loves to decorate their house with pink or teal Christmas trees…this would be the perfect card for that friend! 😉
Thanks so much for visiting and have a wonderful weekend!

I love it!!! I couldn’t wait to see what you did with that panel, and I’m not disappointed. The Lawn Fawn dies make a perfect statement on top of that pretty, sparkly background. Beautiful!!!

Wow! That background is awesome. So cool that you had the white lightbulb over it. I was able to see how shiny the lightbulbs were from the photo. This card must look even more awesome in real life. Well done!
