Using Holographic Paper to Make Simple Cards

 

I received Box 5 of Your Paper Insider, a subscription paper company. 4 times a year they send a surprise box of paper for crafting. You can learn about it here: Your Paper Insider.

I had the white holographic cardstock sitting on my desk for a while, it reminded me of a snow storm. So one day I decided to make a quick card. The paper is 8.5" x 11", I cut it into 4 pieces to make A2 card fronts, 4.25" x 5.5". 

I quickly embossed one panel with the Spellbinders Snow Flurries 3D embossing folder, diecut a snowflake from another piece of paper from Box 5, popped it up with foam tape and grabbed a sentiment from my stash (Spellbinders Glimmer sentiment). This was a quick card. I had no idea it was going to be so popular on Instagram.

I took the another piece of the cardstock and embossed it but unfortunately put the paper in backwards and embossed the back, which is plain. I didn't want to waste it so I took some gold acrylic paint and filled in a few of the debossed areas, cut a larger gold snowflake and mounted it on an already embossed gold background from my stash.

For my 3rd card I cut some silver Sizzix Seasonal Trees and glued them onto another piece of the cardstock, this time I skipped embossing it. I took another one of the sentiments I had foiled and glued it on. Even quiker!

That's it, nice and simple.
