Stap voor stap

1. 

   Cut a square card base from white cardstock. Layer a slightly smaller white panel on top of the card base, positioning it slightly offset to create a border effect.

2. 

   Use a cup or circular object as a template. Apply purple Cadence finger wax around the rim to create a circular bauble outline on your card panel.

3. 

   Create a second half-bauble shape overlapping the first one by twisting the cup to transfer the silver wax onto the purple patterned paper.

   Position the layering stencil over your card panel. Using white ink, stencil through the berry and leaf details to create an underlay for the design.

5. 

   Apply purple ink over the white stencilled areas using a blending tool to create depth and an oxide effect. Work the ink gently over the textured patterns to build up colour gradually.

6. 

   Continue adding stencilled sprigs and foliage clusters around the baubles using the purple ink and finger wax. Build up layers of different foliage elements to create depth and interest around the focal points.

7. 

   Using a clean brush, paint clear sparkle ink inside the purple bauble circles. Dilute the ink slightly with water to create a subtle shimmer without overpowering the stamped design.

8. 

   Mix gold spray stain with sparkle ink and paint the second bauble using a brush to create a warm metallic shimmer over the purple base.

10. 

    Add small gold shimmer circles throughout the design using the gold finger wax to represent additional baubles. Dot them around the purple foliage and across the background layers.

11. 

    Distress the edges of the white panel using scissors to create a vintage effect. Ink the distressed edges with purple ink.

12. 

    Apply gold wax through the stencil using your finger to add subtle highlights to the foliage design. Gently dab the wax onto the raised areas of the stencilled pattern for a delicate metallic finish.

13. 

    Using white finger wax, apply a small halo or highlight to the top of each bauble to create dimension and the effect of light reflection.

    ▶ bekijk deze stap (2:49:00)
14. 

    Apply gold Stickles glue to selected sprigs and foliage details on the card for extra sparkle and definition. Focus on the purple-coloured foliage elements to add highlights.

15. 

    Adhere a sentiment sticker to the centre bauble, such as 'A Christmas dream', using the applicator tool to position it carefully.

    ▶ bekijk deze stap (2:52:00)
16. 

    Apply dry clear glue to selected white spaces on the card front. Attach purple sequins to these glued areas to add dimensional embellishment to the design.

Tips uit de show

• If you don't have a cup, use any circular lid to create the bauble shapes.
• Cadence finger waxes last a lifetime and work beautifully for metallic effects on paper.
• If you don't have sequins, use pearl embellishments or other items from your stash instead.
