Step by Step
1
Using a Silver ink pad, stamp ink all over a piece of card a little larger than your stamp. Apply a layer of embossing powder and heat it up using the heat tool, repeat this so you have four layers one after the other until you have built up a pool of molten powder. Apply the last layer and while it is still hot, press in your stamp. Hold it down firmly until it cools. This creates a finely detailed metallic image. Cut around the image with scissors.
2
Using blue textured card cut a rectangle appro 8cm x 5.5cm. Stamp the image randomly over over card using blue, lilac, and purple ink pads. Ink around the edges with a blue ink pad.
3
Double mount first onto white card and then onto silver card.
4
Stick the metallic image onto the blue card. dd borders of fine silver line. Add small dots of silver glitter glue on the blue card.
5
In the centre add a small silver embellishment from one of the embellishment sets. Stick on some blue and clear small gems.
