Metallic Background Video

Happy Friday everyone! Another week bites the dust!!  This weekend though is very exciting... it's Easter!  Does everyone have big plans?  Our family does a mini Easter egg hunt for our little one in the morning followed by her basket and little gifts that the Easter Bunny leaves her and then we have a family dinner.  This year we are headed to my in-laws:)  It's going to be a great time!!

For today's card i wanted to show how i did the Metallic Background technique that i introduced earlier this week in this post here.

Isn't that a great technique?  I love how it is subtle but still adds sooo much!!  After my background dried i finished my project by still swarming around the Easter theme.  I used my All Dressed Up stamp set with the coordinating die set, Dress Up Framelits.  To pull in the Primrose Petals ink that i used for one of my background colors i used a strip of the matching card stock cut at 1 1/2" x 5 1/2" and edged it with my Scallop Trim Boarder Punch.  I tied my card together with the Easter Blessing stamp on a piece of Wild Wasabi card stock (the other color i used on my background).

The item that i wanted to highlight again today is the Shimmer Paint.  This item is so great and i am really going to try to use it more.

Well all, i hope you enjoyed another Friday Video Tutorial and until next time...
