Merry Christmas Everyone!
If you want to get messy today and spread glitter everywhere, this is the technique for you. It is a faux suede technique with a twist. It is called Iced Leather. Of course, I am speaking of only the background. What do you think?

First, I made the background, Iced Leather. I took a sanding block and roughed up the Pool Party panel. This gave the panel the look of suede.
I then swiped the sueded panel with VersaMark. I tried to create some rough or hard edges along with some soft edges.
I then sprinkled some Heat and Stick Powder. I applied heat with my heat tool and quickly added the glitter. I tapped off the access and set it aside to cool.
I stamped and die cut three trees and a sentiment.
I arranged them all on the card and attached them using dimensionals.
Lastly, I adhered the basic white panel to the inside of the card.

ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Fonda. I learned it through one of the seasonal events at SCS. I appreciate you stopping by and commenting. My time has been quite limited this holiday season. Hoping I can get back on a routine this coming year. Happy New Year to you and yours. Stay Healthy!
