Instructions

• Cut the Pink Core-Dination card to 5 1/2" by 11" and fold in half. Cut a square of the green card to 5" by 5" and emboss along the left half with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder.

• Sand lightly over the raised dots and each of the edges until the white core beneath is beginning to show.

• Cut a 4 3/4" by 4 3/4" square from the white card. Stamp all over using the flourish stamps and the Versamark ink. Emboss with Seafoam white embossing powder. To make it easier to see where I am going, I stamp and emboss each flourish as I go.

• Shake each of the Radiant Rain Daubers until all the deposits on the bottom have been mixed together well. Spritz the white card gently with water to dampen it. Add dabs of each colour to the card, blending the colours together for a soft rainbow washed feel. Leave to dry.

• Tear down one side of the embossed and coloured card, about 1" in from the side.

• Apply gold leaf sizing to one of the flourish stamps and stamp down over some of the embossed flourishes. Leave until the sizing feels tacky and then apply small pieces of the gold leaf by patting it into the adhesive then rub into the glue gently with a soft paintbrush to remove any excess.

• Adhere green square to the front of the card with the sanded embossing on the right side edge.
• Attach last piece to the top of the green card with the torn edge running along the sanded dots so that it appears that the top piece was torn away to reveal the bottom section.

• Finally, attach the Tinkerbell sticker to the front and the Star to the inside of the card.

Thanks for coming by today. I hope you've enjoyed my project. See you next time.
