Hello stampers!!! Well, it is a cold, windy nasty day here in the mitten state. I actually didn't think I was going to be able to post today's post. We had some heavy, heavy storms today which knocked out our internet so I thought it was going to have to wait, but luckly it came back on a little bit ago. So...... let's get to it then!!!
Today's share is of a Christmas card that I used the Dryer Sheet technique to. Now, if you are unfamiliar with this technique, let me break it down for you a bit. Basically, it is just what it sounds like. You take a used dryer sheet, stamper your image on your card stock, then you would place Stampin' Up!'s Glue Stick and place it all over your card stock that has your image in it, then place your dryer sheet on the glue. Here is a tip that I have found. I like to have the dryer sheet that I am using used in the dryer a couple of times. I find that the more it is used, the thinner that it is... meaning that it doesn't have all of the fibers still in it compared to a new or gently used dryer sheet.
Once I had the base of my card done which I used the Whisper White card stock which measures average size of 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4 and then I placed Midnight Muse atop of that and than another piece of Whisper White which is where I placed my image. Which is an amazing pine tree that comes from the set Lovely As A Tree.
I don't think that my camera picked up really well, but to add some finishing touches to my card I sprinkled some Dazzling Details atop my dryer sheet right after I placed it over my image. I did this immediately because then the glue is still wet and is sort of seeping through the dryer sheet.
Well that is all for today folks. Thanks for visiting my site today and I hope you stop back by again soon. Until then...
Happy Inkin'
