Ribbon Curls with Brutus Monroe

 


Hello everyone!  Well, around here winter has begun!  There has been some
snow and lots of cold!  Today I'll be making a cool winter card using products from


This card was so much fun to make with all of the sparkle going on!  Le me show
you how I did it!  I started by taking a piece of shimmer paper and stenciled it
using the Ribbon Curls Stencil and Teal Candy Coat!


As with many of the mediums in the Brutus Monroe line, this medium goes
on rather light and dull but when it dries it's gorgeous!  Sparkle and shine!
Next I stamped the Snow Globe Stamp Set and a sentiment from the Let It
Snow Stamp Set onto white card stock and heat embossed it black.


I colored these images with Distress Watercolor Pencils.  I went around the
edges of the sentiment very lightly just to give it a bit of color.  Once everything
was dry I die cut my snow globe with the coordinating die and I used a circle die
for the sentiment.


To the snow globe I added Fallen Snow Glitter Glaze on the snowy parts and
on the stars.  While it was still wet I added some Shimmer Flake.  


I cut out 4 snowflakes out of pearlized vellum with the Snowflake Cutting
Dies.  I adhered the biggest one behind my sentiment circle.


I trimmed my stenciled panel to 3 3/4" x 5" and adhered to a silver mirror
panel that measures 4 1/8" x 5 3/8".  Then I adhered that to a white top
folding A2 size card base.  I popped up the snow globe on foam tape and
then put Crystal Glaze on the globe part (this took quite a long time to dry!).


Once the Crystal Glaze was dry I added snow with a white Posca Pen.  I
adhered down the other 3 snowflakes and my sentiment and then I used clear
gems and holographic confetti.  And that completed my card!


I hope you enjoyed this super sparkly tutorial!  I love it when everything
shines!  You can find the products I used from
