Items used:
- 12×12 white card stock
- Any white embossing powder
- Any gold embossing powder
- Ruby Slippers Brilliant Sparkle embossing powder from Cosmic Shimmer
- Spriter Bottles (you will need 4 of these).
- Rubbing alcohol.
- Small funnel.
- Heat tool.
- Embossing buddy
If you do not have the Ruby Slippers embossing powder, you can stamp in Poppy Parade and emboss with clear powder but this will not give you the same effect.
Stamps and inks used
- Frosted GingerBread stamp set from Stampin’ Up!
- Garden Green standard ink pad from Stampin’ Up!
- Gold metallic Mixative Alcohol ink from Ranger.
- Alchemy (yellow) Alcohol-Pearl ink from Ranger
- Meadow (green) Alcohol ink from Ranger
- Watermelon (red) Alcohol ink from Ranger.
If you do not have alcohol inks to hand you can also use standard re-inkers. For this I recommend, Poppy Parade, Garden Green and Daffodil Delight from Stampin’ up. However, you will not be able to substitute the gold.
Preparing the spritzers.
- Using the funnel, fiill the spritzer bottle 3/4 with rubbing alcohol.
- Add at least ten drops of ink to alcohol.
- Replace the spritzer lid and close firmly.
- Shake well before use.
- Store upright and don’t forget to label each bottle.
Instructions.
- Lightly spritz paper with each colour starting with yellow, then gold, green and lastly with red.
- Allow to air-dry or dry with the heat tool.
- Using the bauble from Frosted Gingerbread, stamp in regular intervals in Garden Green, leaving space for the bells.
- Allow to air-dry or dry with the heat tool.
- Use embossing buddy to remove static.
- Stamp bells in regular intervals between the baubles using clear Versamark or white ink, leaving space for the pinwheels. Emboss the bells in white.
- Stamp the trio of pinwheels in regular intervals between the baubles in red or clear ink and heat emboss using the Ruby Slippers. it is best to start these off by heating from underneath. You can also use clear powder.
- Stamp the single pinwheels in regular intervals between the baubles using clear ink and then heat emboss in gold.
