1. Die cut pillow box.

Hi everyone it’s Holly here today with a very Sparkly card for Mardi Gras!! It’s that time of year again and this new Mardi Gras set from Avery Elle is perfect for all the festivities.

I started by Die cutting a White panel using the Wonky Stitches Die from Avery Elle and a piece of Neenah Solar White Card stock. I stamped the bead image several times to create a background using Sugarplum & Noble Fir inks from Lawn Fawn. I also heat embossed a few strands using some Gold Sparkle powder from WOW.

I die cut a panel of Gold Glitter card stock using the same Large Wonky Stitch die and added it a top folding A2 size card base offset a little. Then I adhered the background panel with some foam adhesive. I stamped the images from the Mardi Gras set onto some white card stock using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I colored them in with Copic Markers and fussy cut them out. I assembled the pieces adding some tiny 3mm gold sequin strands with glue dots. I added foam adhesive to the mask image and added it to the front of the card. I added some Clear & Gold Wink of Stella to the images.

I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of White card stock that was die cut with the Banner in the Wonky Stitches die. I wanted some extra bling so I added some Gold, Green & Purple Sequins.

I used the following Copic markers

Mask: G14,G07 & G28 / Feathers: V15,V17  V09 / Gold Accents: Y21, Y26 & Y28 / Flower Center: E40
