S parkly congratulations card using Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock, designer paper, Foil Sheets, and Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Whisper White Thick Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Night of Navy Cardstock
- 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" of multi-colored small stars on white background design from Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series Paper
- 2-3/4" square of tiny white dots and stars on dark blue background design from Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series Paper
- 1-3/4" x 3-1/4" from Silver Glimmer Paper
- 1-5/8" x 3-1/8" from from Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets
Mount the "congratulations" sentiment from the Floral Phrases Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Night of Navy Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the multi-colored stars on white piece of Twinkle Twinkle Designer Paper about 3/4" from the bottom.
Adhere the stamped designer paper rectangle to the Night of Navy rectangle.
Using Tear & Tape Adhesive, adhere one end of the Silver Metallic Thread to the back of the Night of Navy rectangle about 1-1/4" from the top. Wrap the thread around the cardstock/designer paper layers about 7 or 8 times at different angles. Make sure the thread stays within about a 1-1/4" area. Secure the end of the thread to the back of the Night of Navy Cardstock using another small piece of Tear & Tape Adhesive. Cut the thread free from the spool.
Remove the protective backings from the Tear & Tape strips and add more SNAIL to the back of the cardstock. Adhere it to the front of the Whisper White Thick card.
Pick out the circle framelit from the Layering Circles Framelits that cuts out a circle that is 2-3/8" diameter. Place the dark blue square of Twinkle Twinkle Designer Paper on the Cutting Pad on top of the Platform on the Big Shot. Place the circle framelit on top. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot.
Adhere the circle cut out to the front of the card so it is centered over the metallic thread.
Carefully peel up the protective backing on one side of the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet piece and adhere the adhesive sheet to the white side of the Silver Glimmer Paper rectangle. Leave the other protective backing piece in place.
Place the piece of Glimmer Paper on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Platform on the Big Shot so that the adhesive side (with protective backing in place) is on the bottom (silver glimmer facing up).
Pick out the "Happy" thinlit from the Merry Christmas Thinlits. Place it on top of the Silver Glimmer Paper piece on the Big Shot. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush to remove the pieces.
Peel the protective backing off of the "Happy" cut out and adhere it to the front of the card so it is centered across the dark blue circle at a slight angle.
Use the Fine-Tip Glue Pen to put three small dots of glue on the card front in a large triangle around the circle and sentiment.
Use the sticky putty end of the Take Your Pick tool to pick up three different sized silver sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment and adhere them to the dots of glue.
Tip: Pull straight up to remove the cap on the end of the Take Your Pick tool putty end. If the putty is no longer tacky, snip it off the end of the tool and give the base of the putty dispenser a twist to dispense more putty.
