Christmas Card with Glittery Paper and Noor! Dies
I couldn't wait to try the glittery gift wrap I mentioned in my last post on my blog.
I started by choosing a K&Co tag which would match one of the colors of paper I bought. This tag had touches of glitter, and in person, the blue on the tag is the same shade of blue as the paper.
For the other papers, I used a pale gold Core'dinations Pearl paper, which matched the ivory color in the tag, and a mat of gold mirror card.
The tag is dimensionally mounted onto a die cut from one of my Noor! dies. That die cut is mounted dimensionally onto the background paper and surrounded by corners made from another Noor! die. I added a few blue rhinestones as a finishing touch.
In this photograph, the amount of sparkle makes it look like the glitter is sparse and it looks like you can see the background through the paper, but you really can't. The glitter covers the paper completely, with no background paper showing.
Your sparkly paper has made a fabulous background, Kathi. I love those dies you used, too. I have never heard of Noor dies, but they look gorgeous! x
