Unusually I kept to one brand for todays card – pretty pink posh – mainly because I wanted to use the Christmas lights garland die I bought a while ago for the theme of sparkling lights.
And isn’t it just so cute? Well I think so!
Die cut three of the garlands and then I cut the lights twice from each of the three colours – so there were enough to stick to the parts of the garlands I would be using!
I spent a fair while sticking them together and then added the clear glitter glue to each of the lights so they really are sparkling.
I chose the blue for the mat layer and then to emboss the white with the merry Christmas embossing folder.
The sentiment was another pretty pink posh one and I used the same pink cardstock I had used for the lights. I stacked it four layers because it was going to go over the garlands. I also added some thread as a little nest underneath to add another texture.
Such a cute card!
I did have to do some fairly speedy scenes on the video as the fiddly glueing element took a while – but the process video is over on my YouTube channel – along with all the other Christmas in July videos so far in the playlist!
Happy crafting!
