Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. When creating cards, you don't have to stick to the confines of the card panel. Allow you die-cuts and stamped images to sit off the panel, and add interest. You can easily pop it in a large envelope, giving your card more impact. Today we're creating with the Spellbinders Paint Your World Collection and painted with glitter. So let's get started!
Written and photos Paint with glitter:
Die-cut 5 brush handles from the Artful Brush die set out of cream coloured cardstock. Using a blend brush apply brown ink to one side of the handles to create depth and shadow to your brush handles. Next, die-cut the handles twice more and layer up behind these ink blended handles to create depth.
Die-cut the bristles for the brushes 5 times for each out of cream cardstock and adhere these to the base of the brushes, layering these up and overlapping these to create a realistic brush. To finish the brushes off, die-cut the metal band on the brush out of gold mirror cardstock and adhere over the ends of the brushes to seal the bristles in. Using coloured glitter cardstock, die-cut the paint drips from the die-set in a rainbow of colours and adhere these to the ends of the brushes.
To create the card base, trim down a white piece of a card to be 1-4” smaller than a slimline card base. With a blending brushes, ink blend a soft rainbow of ink colour across the card panel. Adhere the ink blended panel onto a white slimline card base with foam pads to add interest.
Add the brushes onto the card base, aligning each colour drip with the same colour in the rainbow background. Stagger these vertically on the card to add more interest and allow the handles to hang off the edge. Finish the card of by heat embossing a sentiment from the Paint Your World Sentiments stamp set in gold embossing powder.
