Mini Monsters Card: Fun & Easy Glitter, Glossy Accents, and Embossing Techniques

Hi everyone!  This is Kimberly (My Craft Spot) with a fun project for you.  I just got this new cartridge and wanted to make something fun, but not Halloween, since it is July!  I am really loving the Mini Monsters Cartridge!  I used my gypsy, lots of glitter (I even mixed two colors to get a new color - see my video), Glossy accents, Cuttlebug and Heat Embossing.  I really had fun making this new card and exploring some new techniques!




Here are two videos showing the fun glitter techniques I used and the Glossy accents and embossing.  Hope you enjoy them!!

Part 1: Mini Monsters Card



Part 2: Mini Monsters Card



Have a great weekend!

    That is too cute. I loved your videos and the techniques you shared. Awesome background piece. And I liked the little bit of drool too. ;-)

    Kimberly this card is totally adorable!! I love the glitter and wow sealing it with glossy accents made it even better! I am so excited now as I just purchased this cart last night and will be thrilled if my card turns out even half as cute as yours! The videos are great I watched them both and learned so much! Thans for sharing.

    This card is adorable. These are some of the best videos I have ever seen. You did an excellent job of explaining things and taking your time. What brand of glitter do you use and like?

    Thanks,

    Very cute card! Thanks for the tip on glittering and adding glossy accents over the glitter! I hadn't thought of that before.
