This card a created for a demonstrator swap. (Each demonstrator makes enough cards to share with everyone in the group who is participating. This way we wind up with a bunch of cards from sets we might not own or with designs we may not of thought of.) All the supplies, excepting tools and adhesives. will be listed at the end of my post. Stampin' Up! recently upgraded my website, so it's still a work in progress. Message me if you have any questions.
Trim your Night of Navy cardstock to 4 1/4" x 11" and your Silver Foil to 4" x 5 1/4". You'll also need a piece of Night of Navy, measuring 3 3/4" x 5". For the star grab some Silver Foil and Vellum, measuring at least 2 1/4" x 2 1/4". The star swirl needs a 1 3/4" x 4 1/4" piece of Silver Foil. You'll also need a 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" piece of Whisper White for your greeting. (And this is why we hang on to our scraps. Although the longer I do this, the bigger the scrap has to be.)
Emboss your 3 3/4" x 5" piece of Night of Navy with the new Hammered Metal 3D Embossing Folder. (This is one of those amazing embossing folders where it's tough to choose which side to use.)
From your fabulous So Many Stars Bundle, cut the star swirl & largest "fancy star" from Silver Foil. Use the 4th largest star die (that is the same size as the fancy star) on your Vellum. (Tip: Be sure to save the little stars from the swirl to decorate the inside of the card or the envelope, or save them for another project.)
With your Whisper White, using your Stamparatus, stamp your greeting in Night of Navy. Without removing the stamp, clean it with the Simply Shammy. Give the stamp and the image a moment to dry. While keeping the paper still in place, wipe your greeting with your Embossing Buddy. Reink the stamp with VersaMark and stamp over the Night of Navy. Remove your paper and sprinkle Clear Embossing Powder over the VersaMark. Using your Heat Tool, make the magic happen. Your 2nd largest Stitched Shapes Dies oval will cut it out in the right size.
I used the Multi Purpose Liquid Glue to attach the layers and the swirl. The greeting was attached with Dimensionals. Attach the Vellum star underneath the Silver Foil star with a Mini Glue Dot. I then used a Mini Dimensional to attach the assembled star to the card. Finally I added a few Basic Rhinestone Jewels. (So many of my posts end with this sentence...lol)
