Adore Card by KATRINA THOMPSON

Hi everyone. Today I thought I'd create a quick everyday card in the middle of the silly season as there are still many birthdays and special occasions to celebrate during this time.
I have used just one sheet from the Bohemian Bouquet Collection with a few of the new chipboard pieces from Couture Creations new range. We'll make our own shimmer spray and add some sparkle to someones day.

This whole card is created with just one sheet.

A step card shows off the features of the floral designs. You can create any kind of step you wish.

As pictured, cut out a selection of flowers and leaves to decorate with.

Ink lightly around all the edges to blend.

I wanted the chipboard to be muted and blended, so no priming, just ink directly onto the chipboard with a coordinating ink. A little soaks in and acts more like a stain.

Attach your chipboard as pictured and arrange your flowers and foliage to suit. Layer, tuck and weave some of the pieces to create some interest.

With the shimmer spray your cage will look even more textured.

Place a dash of the Pearl White Mix and Match Pigment Powder into a spray bottle and add water. Shake well and your ready to add a beautiful pearlescent shimmer to your projects.

It will be a trail as to how much shimmer you want. I start with a scoop about as large as a 10cent piece. Always start with a small amount and add more powder to increase the shimmer.
