Sparkly Texture Paste
Hello, Jessica here! We are wrapping up our collaboration month with WPlus9 but I had one more card that I wanted to share! This was an interesting card to create…I had an idea in my head but it took a lot of experimenting to actualize that idea. Here’s what I came up with!
I really love the way it turned out. That stencil just might be my most favorite ever!
I started out by placing the stencil at an angle on a piece of WPlus9 Sweet Gelato cardstock and then I applied translucent embossing paste over the stencil. I sprinkled it with glitter and set it aside to dry.
While the embossing paste was drying I prepared the rest of the card. I die-cut the Hero Arts bird with gold glitter paper and the sentiment from the WPlus9 Hand-Lettered Hello die with silver glitter paper. I also die-cut the WPlus9 Spring Wreaths from WPlus9 Sweet Gelato cardstock, silver and gold glitter paper.
To assemble the card I used mini glue dots to adhere the wreath and bird to the embossing paste panel. I used multi-medium matte to attach the flowers and sentiment to the card and then attached the panel to a top-folding A2 card base of Neenah Solar White cardstock. This is an incredibly pink card and it REALLY shimmers when it catches the light. I love how the shapes in the stencil design are echoed in the wreath and how the two companies just work together so beautifully!!

Black and white flowers with WPlus9
Hi, as we are having the pleasure of collaborating this month with WPlus 9, I wanted to create some stamped flowers using the stamp set Pretty Little Peonies. It was my first time creating stamped flowers. It is really open to so many possibilities!
This time I wanted to play with black, white and grey. And a bit of ribbon. Ok, and a bit of pattern paper. 🙂
I made a video to show you the process.



I hope you like the card and I thank you all the comments in my solo posts (you make my days!).
See you soon!
