Make Your Own Sparkle card

It's so fun playing with embossing powders. I have to admit over the years I have collected a whole drawer full! I wanted to share a technique of customizing your own glitter paper using sparkling embossing powder. So many types of embossing powders. Clear, colored, sparkly! The possibilities are endless! You can add them to white or colored cardstock depending on what your project is.

I made this card using an A2 size card base from smooth white cardstock. I then cut a panel of cream cardstock and adhered it to the card base. I then die cut flowers from white cardstock and colored them in with copic markers. 

I then added clear embossing ink directly to a square of white cardstock. I sprinkled on sparkly embossing powder and heat set it with a heat tool. I created a square of silvery sparkly cardstock. I die cut the word thanks from it. I then die cut the coordinating shadow die from white cardstock.

I arranged the flowers and the thanks sentiment on the cream cardstock. I used 3d foam squares to adhere them for a bit of dimension. I added some clear jewels to finish this fun card off.

I hope you enjoyed the card I made and got some inspiration. Next time you want to have that perfect glittery cardstock for your project, give this technique a try! I have provided affiliate links to everything I used to make this card below. Have a great day and thank you for stopping by!
