Perfect Partners! Making a Gold Background with Masks!

The masks that are on page 128 of the AC can be used in so many ways. SU has had masks for several years, and I always buy them. And never use them. So, I made a goal for myself to use these!

I had the Glimmer Speciality Paper sitting around (on page 31 of the mini catalog) and knew I could make some really fancy trees with the Trimming the Tree dies (only available this month!!).

I thought it would be cool to open a card and see those fancy trees. So, I decided that I wanted to make a gate card and use my Low Profile Velcro to keep it closed.

Here’s a link to a different size of the Low Profile Velcro I used (the size I used isn’t available now):

Velcro Low Profile

I thought of what to have on the outside of the card. Tried a few things and didn’t like it. Then I knew I could make something really metallic with the masks and gold embossing powder.

This card has lots of fancy papers on it! Pearlescent, glimmer, and embossed cardstock!

Here’s the full video of me making this card:

 

And here’s my short one!

Perfect Partners x 2: Yetis with a Christmas Tree!

Out of all my supplies, I didn’t have a tree stamp/die that looked the right size to be with the yetis. When Perfect Partners came around, I knew I had to get those trees!

Lots of snow on this card!

All the dies on this card, except the die to die cut the sentiment, are part of Perfect Partners and ONLY AVAILABLE until 9/30 or when they sell out!

First, I made a night background with my Blending Brushes. I used Night of Navy, Polished Pink, Granny Apple Green, Gorgeous Grape, and Mango Melody.

I stamped a yeti with Balmy Blue and die cut. I then did a reverse stamping and die cut so they could face each other. Here’s a quick video on how I do that:

 

I stamped the tree with Soft Sea Foam and Pear Pizzazz. Die cut it.

I die cut the tree stand with the Silver Foil paper (it has 3 different finish/colors). I die cut the bows with Silver Foil paper with a different finish.

The mountains were die cut with Gray Granite paper.

The sentiment is from the Ringed with Nature stamp set. I stamped on Basic White with Pear Pizzazz. Die cut with Stitched Rectangles.

I then added the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint to just about everything!

 

Here’s everything I used:
