• Ultra fine Metal Tip
• Art Glitters:  #337 Challis,  #23 Midnight, #107 Red Oak
• Authentique Pride Collection papers
• Sticky tape
• Penny Black Dahlia's Stamp
• Penny Black "Better Early" Rubber Stamp

• Button
• Martha Steward lace punch
• Ranger's Vintage Photo Distress Ink

• dimensional dots
• Ivory 5 by 7 inch card stock base

Directions

Step One

Heather started out with an ivory card stock base.  She cut out the pieces of Authentique Pride papers for her card.  She used Ranger's Vintage photo distress ink to stamp the Penny Black Dahlia leaves onto the Authentique paper, and the "Better Early" sentiment onto ivory card stock paper.  Baker's Twine was wrapped around the sentiment, and a vintage button with Baker's twine bow was added to the top using Art Glitter Designer Dries Clear Glue.  She used scissors to distress the edges of her pieces then inked them with Ranger's Vintage photo.  She used pop dots to elevate the sentiment on one of the Authentique stickers.   She used a Martha Stewart lace punch to punch some of the Authentique paper.

Step Two

Heather cut out the leaves, then used the Ultra Fine Tip and Designer's Dry Clear glue to outline the leaves.

Step Three

Heather applied #337 Challis glitter to the leaves.

Step Four

She removed excess glitter and placed it back in it's container.

Step Five

Heather arranged the Authentique Pride papers and stickers on her card base.  She used dimensional dots to elevate some of the leaves, sentiment and Lady Liberty image.  Penny Black leaves were arranged on the card.  All layers were placed on the card base using the Sticky tape.

Step 6

Next she used the Ultra Fine tip applicator and applied the Dries Clear Designer Glue to the Authentique Paper.  Please refer to photo below for placement.

Step 7

 Midnight #23  Glitter was applied to the stripes of the punched pieces and Other areas of the Authentique paper.  Please refer to photo below for placement.

Step 8

 Heather added Designer Dries clear glue in the same manner to the edges of the Authentique Sticker.  Please refer to photo below for placement.

Step 9

Areas of the "Lady Liberty" image and Sentiment were outlined with Designer Dries Clear Glue and both Red Oak and Challis glitters were applied.  Please refer to photo below for placement.

Step 10

#107 Red Oak glitter was applied to the sticker.  Please refer to photo below for placement of glitter.  She outlined the "Better Early" Penny Black sentiment, and the "July 4th" stickers with Designer Dries Clear glue.  #337 Challis glitter was applied.

Step 11

Designer Dries clear Glue applied to Authentique Sticker.

Step 12

 Midnight Glitter was applied to sticker, and excess glitter was removed.

 Step 13

Heather used the Ultra Fine Tip to apply decorative strokes with the Designer Dries Clear Glue to the top area of card.  Please refer to photo below.

Step 14

She did the same to the bottom area of card.  Please refer to photo below.

Step 15

Red Oak Glitter was then applied to these areas.  The card is now finished.

  

Heather's application of the gorgeous Art Glitters, really makes the Penny Black leaves stamps, sentiment and Authentique papers stand out!

Happy 4th of July

Supply List:
Art Glitter #349 Garnet Ultrafine Opaque glitter
Art Glitter #335 Sun Ray Chunky Opaque Hologram Glitter
Art Glitter Dries Clear adhesive
Authentique Paper- Pride
Authentique Pride- Details sticker sheet
Assorted die cut shapes for title bracket shape

As I scrapbook in 8x8 rather than 12x12 I began by cutting my base layer down to size.  Then I added the first elements to the page.  I used Authentique Pride detail stickers (banner) in the upper left corner of the page and used the stickers to anchor bakers twine in place.

To add a little extra bling to the banner I used Art Glitter Dries clear adhesive and garnet glitter on the stars. 

Using my die cut machine I created a bracket shape and a matching base.  I covered the mat (base) with Garnet red glitter then added pattern paper on top.

As July 4th is still a few days away, I have chosen to simply add a photo mat to the layout with the intention of adding a photo after the 4th.  I actually do this quite a bit.  I find that when I scrapbook ahead of an even I can pose my boys perfectly and ensure that they are dressed correctly to coordinate with the layout.  I guess that makes me a real scrapbooking geek, but by boys seem to think it is fun!

To create the glitter stars I used die cut shapes (but this could be done with punches, or hand cut stars).  I ran the stars through my Xyron X to totally coat them in adhesive, then glittered.  HERE IS A GREAT GLITTER TIP FOR YOU- when glittering small items like the stars, I like to simply dip the paper into the glitter rather than dumping out the glitter.  The mess is less and I use less glitter in the process.

After glittering the stars in both Sun Ray and Garnet Glitter from Art Glitter the stars were added to the layout.  Some were placed flat on the page, and some were popped up using foam adhesive.

The title was created using die cut double sided adhesive and Garnet Glitter.

I hope you have enjoyed this glittered layout as much as I enjoyed creating it! 

Thanks for stopping by to see my creations.

This time, we have created with the gorgeous Freedom Collection.  I made two creations.  The first is a card.  

MATERIALS:

Art Glitter Microfine Pearlescent 533 Mini Pearl

Art Glitter Microfine Opaque 516 Gold Tone

Art Glitter Microfine Opaque 510 Terra Nova

Art Glitter Microfine Opaque 500 Ruby Red

Authentique Pride Collection Papers

Authentique Pride Collection Sticker Sheet

White Card Stock

Dreamweaver Stencil LL 359 Flag

Dreamweaver Double Sided Mounting Paper

Dreamweaver Handmade Hawaiian Coconut Soap

Dreamweaver Large Stencil Brush

Pencil

Craft Knife

Adhesive

DIRECTIONS:

1)  Center the flag on top of the Double Sided Adhesive Paper, being sure to leave a border around the stencil, and trace the blue area with a pencil.

 2)  Very gently use the craft knife to cut through the protective layer of paper around the tracing and remove.

3)  Rub the bar of soap across the back of the stencil to create a light, cloudy, layer.
4)  Use the stencil brush to remove any of the soap "crumblies" that cling to the edges of the openings on the stencil.
5)  Place the stencil, soap side down, so that the stars are on the opening in the paper.
6)  Pour a little Art Glitter 533 Mini Pearl over the stars and rub in with your finger.  This is the perfect glitter for this because the small grind allows it to get into all of the detail, and the pearlescent effect makes the stars more opaque.

7)  Brush off excess glitter with the stencil brush.
8)  Carefully remove the stencil.
9)  Remove the remaining paper from the adhesive and place the stencil, soap side down, so that the blue square surrounds the stars.
10)  Pour a little Gold Tone onto the pole and the edges and rub in with your finger.
11)  Pour the Ruby Red onto the stripes and carefully rub in with your finger.  Avoid the square.
12)  Pour a little Terra Nova into the square, right over the stars, and rub in with your finger.

13)  Brush off any excess glitter with your stencil brush.
14)  Place the whole thing face down on a flat surface and carefully remove the adhesive paper from the stencil.  Make sure the stencil stays flat on the surface the entire time.

 15)  Brush off the excess with your stencil brush.

16)  Assemble the card.

Now for the bonus project!  A cute, little patriotic birdhouse.

MATERIALS:

Art Glitter Vintage Glass Glitter 611 Antique Silver

Art Glitter Microfine Opaque 500 Ruby Red

Art Glitter Designer Dries Clear Adhesive

Art Glitter Sticky Tape

Authentique Pride Collection Papers

Authentique Pride Freedom Collection Sticker Sheet

Authentique Pride Collection Alphabet Sticker Sheet

Authentique Pride Freedom Collection Word Sticker Sheet

Small Birdhouse

Blue Acrylic Paint

Cotton Swab or Paintbrush

Ruler

Big Bite

Craft Knife

I won't go through an entire tutorial on this one.  Suffice to say, first you paint the edges.  I used a cotton swab, but you can use a paintbrush.  Then, you measure and cut the panels from your choice of paper.  I pressed the front onto the birdhouse to determine where the perch was, and then used the Big Bite to punch the hole there.  

When you adhere your papers, don't forget to use a little Designer Dries Clear.

Finally, you add the stickers and beautiful glitter.  I chose the colors I did because they had a vintage feel.  When applying the stripes and edges, I used the Sticky Tape so that I did not have to worry about the edges being crooked.  I simply peeled off one side, adhered it to the house, and then peeled the other side and poured the glitter on.

Here is a quick peek at the back of the house.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Come visit my blog some time at www.rememberinglifesmoments.blogspot.com.  

Until next time, glitter on!

The Authentique Pride line is perfect for scrap booking the 4th of July, Memorial Day, and any historical site.  Use it to scrapbook those Statue of Liberty pictures.  And use the Art Glitter products for all the firework details!  To create the title, cut Art Glitter Sticky Paper with a digital cutter such as a Cricut or Cameo.  For this title, Cricut Craft Room Basics formed the word Lady, and Wall Decor was used for liberty.  Use a heavy duty blade in the Cricut with the red printed side of the sticky paper facing up.  Peel of the red sticky paper and sprinkle glitter over the sticky side.  Shake off excess and apply to page with designer dries clear glue.Get the look of a flag with the Authentic paper, and embellish with a circle of stars.  This circle was created with Cricut Craft Room software, George, Basic Shapes, and Independence Day.  It was then embellished with Timeless Twine.

To add the sparkle of fireworks, use the Art Glitter Fantasy Film with the Sizzix Tim Holtz Texture Fades Rays embossing folder for a star burst effect.  Just place three sheets of the Fantasy film inside your embossing folder and one sheet of parchment paper on top, leaving the embossing folder open.  Press with your iron for three to five seconds, close the embossing folder (leaving parchment paper in place) and run it through your embossing machine as usual.  By running the Fantasy film through the embossing machine while it is still warm with parchment paper in place, it will hold it's shape better and be less likely to tare.  Embellish the lines with Warm White and speckles with Showgirl DAZZLERS, using the Art Glitter Metal Ultra Fine Tip and Designer Dries Clear Adhesive.
And custom match your embellishments with Art Glitter's colored glitter.  This flower originally had brown stamens, and was custom matched to the Authentique Pride line with Art Glitter's  Dragonfly DAZZLERS.  What a fabulous blue, perfect for the patriotic paper crafter!  The Authentique embellishment is embellished with some mini pom pom trim.
