Once in a while, a card calls for a bit of sparkle only glitter can provide. Here's how I put this card together:


Bazzill Basics Cardstock:

10-1001E White
7-799E Sea Salt

Spellbinders:

S2-014 Medallion One

Other Materials Used:

Ribbon
StampIt Thank you stamp
Superfine glitter


Step 1
Make a white card base and cut a blue card front to fit.


Step 2
Cut an aperture in the blue card front using the border die from the Medallion One set, and then cut a medallion out of it.


Step 3 
Stick the medallion to a scrap of Jac paper.


Step 4
Place the medallion and Jac paper into position on the card front. The exposed Jac paper will adhere to the back of the card front.


Step 5
Sprinkle a generous amount of glitter onto the medallion. It will stick to the exposed Jac paper through the pattern of the medallion. Tap of the excess glitter.





Assemble the rest of the card by adding ribbon , a bow and a stamped sentiment.

I made this photo frame for someone who loves Paris, but the Eiffel Tower image could easily be replaced with a photo of a loved one or meaningful quote. The frame itself is very light weight - made from corrugated cardboard then painted and the front piece has been embossed with brick pattern. The acetate has also been embossed with the Grateful Lattice die to make it look like lead light.
