Thank You Card

This card was recently posted on the Globecraft Memories Blog.

Since receiving my box of Globecraft Memories products, I've been having fun playing and experimenting to see what these products will do.  Since I always need a Thank You card, I pulled out my Sizzix Embossing Folder and embossed a sheet of silver cardstock. 


I applied Enamel Powder Adhesive across several words and then poured Vintage Silver across some of the embossed words just to see what would happen.


It's a little hard just getting the adhesive on the words, but it does provide a great result.  The upper word is clear because it is a little thicker.  The lower word is a little difficult to see in this photo, but if you look at the final card above, this word really stands out.  I then added adhesive and Vintage Silver around the edge of the card



I applied Mermaid Tears to the edges of this tag and then heat set it.  I then applied liberal amounts of adhesive to the center of tag and added Enchanted Aubergine and heat set it again.  I then added more Mermaid Tears and again heat set, allowing the colors to run.  Continually reheating the powders allows you to create some really fun mixtures and designs.


I wasn't sure if I could use these products on ribbon, so I decided to see what would happen.  I applied adhesive the full length of the ribbon then added Mermaid Tears.  After heat setting, I then reapplied the adhesive and added Vintage Silver.  My ribbon became firm and was able to hold the shape you see.


I tied part of the ribbon to the tag, then stapled a portion to the lower edge of the tag.
Then I thought I'd see if rub-ons would adhere to the tag and they went on beautifully without issue.
