Twinkle Tips^✧

The shop image: Fussy cut your desired image. For the shop shown here with the uneven top, cut the straight edge between the roof and plants. Trim the plant strip so that it is smooth, but not too close to the greenery. Sponge lightly with Balmy Blue ink. Add dimensional foam and adhere to the top of the shop. Also, fussy cut a menu board image from the design papers. Use dimensional foam to add to your card front.

Sentiment label: Turn a plain rectangle into a fancy label. Stamp your sentiment on a strip of cardstock. After trimming card stock to fit your sentiment, use paper snips to cut away just a bit of each corner.

Floating acetate: Use a wet glue to adhere your shop image and sentiment label to the front of the acetate. Then, add dimensional foam to the back of the acetate, hiding the foam behind the shop and label. Attach acetate to card front. Don’t forget to add a few sequins!
