Scallops and Xmas Boxes

 Scallops and Xmas Boxes Cards

Welcome again! Still loving the 'glitter', this time using glitter card and glitter glue.  These elements are from Couture Creation's new collection 'Deck the Halls'.  This set is for the 8 1/2" x 4 1/4" Tall card.

I wanted to use the new 'Golden Age' alcohol inks as well because - you guessed it, it has gold glitter in them.  To create the background card, I dropped the 3 alcohol ink colours onto a plastic sheet and then used a scrunched up piece of plastic wrap as a dauber and randomly daubed into the inks then onto the white cardstock.  I left the card for the ink to dry before die cutting the elements.  I cut a mix of pieces from the different card then divided them up between the 2 cards.  On the scalloped edges I painted some gold glitter glue.  On the white 'present boxes' and the red die cut sentiment I coated them with some clear lacquer to create a 3D effect.  

Once all the elements were ready, I backed some with cardboard or foam then glued/mounted the arrangement in place.
