Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Embrace the Magic Card using the Light & Wonder Bundle from the Lights of Aurora Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! I love this Suite and couldn’t resist using it for a shoebox swap.
The Details of My Embrace the Magic Card
For my card, I knew that I wanted to use the beautiful Lights of Aurora DSP with that tree die! I saw an accordion card that inspired me to trim my DSP into strips instead of keeping it in one piece. Then, I matted it onto Basic Black card stock leaving a gap between the strips and a 1/8” border all around. Tip: adhere the end strips before adhering the centre one.
Once my DSP was down, I started to layer my scene with the Basic White snow caps and the Basic Gray mountains adhered directly to my DSP. I popped up the trees with the mini Black Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Next, I embossed the sentiments in white. The Blackberry Bliss sentiment was fussy cut down to fit the letters, while the Basic Black sentiment was die cut using the largest flag from the Stylish Shapes Dies. I popped up all the sentiments with the Black Stampin’ Dimensionals.
All this was adhered to a Basic White mat and then to a Blackberry Bliss card base that was dry embossed with the So Swirly Embossing Folder.
As a finishing touch, I placed a scattering of the Frosted Iridescent Dots on my card.
