Dreamweaver Free Challenge week

This week I decided to do a double glitter technique using the dangling heart stencil(LM 272). to do this technique I used double-sided mounting paper (DSMP). the first thing I did was to remove one sided of the double sided paper and attach it to cardstock, then I soaped up the back of stencil with coconut vegatable soap (DHHS) this is done so the stencil can be removed easily from the sticky paper. once the stencil is placed on the other side of the mounting paper then using a waterfall method I spooned silver glitter onto one heart then the other. Once that was done I filled in the the string with fire red glitter. I removed the paper from the stencil and used crystal glitter for the background, then I trimmed the edges of the paper. The card is silver metallic paper from Stardream I then layered on a glitter heart paper from POW made by American Crafts. I tied flourish red ribbon around the card. The glittered image was layered onto the same silver and then onto dark red cardstock. I used mounting tape to pop the image off the card. As you see another CAS card. I had a lot of fun making this card because I love glitter, you know everwhere, table, floor, clothes and glasses. So when I work with glitter I usually make several cards. Look forward to next week as the Dream Team will be posting SNEAK PEEKS of the new stencils be released at CHA. Now don't forget to check out the blogs of my Dream Team sisters I know you find inspiring images there and if you want to play along go to the Dream IT Up blog and show us your creations by linking to Mr. Linky. See you next week.
