Hey Everyone,
My oldest niece and nephews want cash this year for Christmas. They are growing up too fast. It was only 14 years ago that my niece was a flower girl at my wedding and now she’s learning how to drive.
Today’s Gypsy Spot challenge was to create something with a snowman and/or snowflake. Well since I’m giving cash this year, I thought this challenge was a perfect time to make money card holders.
I love using UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel) on my projects and not too long ago I found a great video tutorial at apieceofcraftdotcom on how to add glitter to UTEE. Her technique was on Prima flowers, but you can certainly do this on anything you cut out from your Cricut.
I’m sure you all need a video fix, so here you go…..
Thanks for watching and I hope to be back later this week with a Wild Card Series video.
Hugs,
Awesome! Very handy, indeed! TFS!
