I started with a Very Vanilla card base cut to 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″. Then I cut a panel of Pool Party Core’dinations Card Stock to 4″ x 5-1/4″, embossed it with the Northern Flurry Embossing folder and sanded the raised areas. I cut a strip of More Amore DSP to 1-7/8″ x 3-3/4″ and I adhered it with SNAIL to a strip of Pool Party Card Stock cut to 2″ x 3-7/8″. Next, I cut a strip of Very Vanilla Card Stock to 1-7/8″ x 3″, stamped the Snowflake Soiree images in VersaMark ink, sprinkled them with Pool Party Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed the images. Then I sponged the edges of the snowflake embossed panel with Pool Party ink and I adhered the panel with SNAIL to a Pool Party Card Stock Strip cut to 2″ x 3-1/8″. I adhered the two layered strips of card stock to the embossed and sanded panel with SNAIL. Then I stamped the sentiment from the Apothecary Arts stamp set onto a piece of Very Vanilla Card Stock cut to 1/2″ x 2-1/4″ using VersaMark ink. I sprinkled the sentiment with Pool Party Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it, then adhered a strip of Pool Party Card Stock cut to 5/8″ x 2-1/4″ to the sentiment strip with SNAIL. I trimmed the flag end with my scissors and adhered the sentiment to the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensional on the left side and SNAIL on the right side. I finished the card by piercing the upper part of the panel and placing a Designer Builder Brad through the hole. I placed a Large Rhinestone in the center of the brad and added 3 smaller rhinestones on either side of the brad and I adhered the card front to the Very Vanilla card base with SNAIL.
I really like the new Pool Party Stampin’ Emboss Powder. I feel like I’ve been embossing everything this week!
