A Sneaky Peek at one of my creations for Imagination Craft's C&C TV show.

Good evening Lovelies,

Thought I'd show you a sneaky peek of one of my cards that I have made for Sue & Harvey of Imagination Crafts  for their next show on Create and Craft TV on Friday 12th June, which is being shown at 8am.

Fold the white card in half down the crease line to make a 7"x7" square card.   Take a piece of white linen card approximately one quarter of an inch smaller than the base card and paint all four edges with the gorgeous  dark orchid Starlight Metallic paint.   This will dry in a few seconds, then matt this onto the base card.   This paint is stunning!  it just glides on and drys so quickly and the colours are just gorgeous!!   I love working with them they give such fantastic results.

   
Take a slightly smaller piece of white card and spritz with the aubergine Inkadink mixed with water.   When dry lay the snowflake stencil on top and using a piece of cut n' dry foam, dab the dark orchid paint through the design.   Remove the stencil and leave the image to dry.  

   
In the meanwhile, lay the stencil onto a piece of acetate large enought to fit around the spritzed card.   Spread the diamond Sparkle Medium over the design using the metal spatula.  

     
Remove the stencil and leave the image to dry.   Cut the acetate slightly larger than the spritzed matt.   Fix the acetate to the reverse of the spritzed card, down each side using double sided sticky tape.

   
Fix this to the base card and that is the card finished.   Hope you like it.   Please don't forget to tune into Create and Craft on Friday, there are some fabulous products and great demos planned for you.



See you soon with another 'sneaky peel.'    Enjoy the rest of your week.

                                                                 Love and rainbows,

                                                                   Hugs    Jennifer xx.
