Hi! It’s Erica and today I’m sharing two cards I created using Adhesive Sheets, Crafty Foam Tape and Crafty Power Tape, as well as a step-by-step tutorial showing you how I altered the berry spray on my cards!
Step 1: Place pattern paper on Adhesive Sheet; insert diecut into machine
Step 2: Peel off backside of Adhesive Sheet; adhere diecut to card base
Step 3: Adhere second layer using Crafty Foam Tape
Step 4: Adhere lace with Crafty Power Tape
Step 5: Next, start with a berry spray (berry spray does not have to match)
Step 6: Paint berry spray with gesso (gesso acts as a primer; darker colored berries may require two coats of gesso)
Step 7: Paint berry spray (select color to match paper collection
Step 8: Add microspheres using glossy accents (apply glossy accents – medium to thick coverage – over 1/2 of each berry; sprinkle microspheres over glossy accents and let dry for several hours)
Step 9: Adhere berry spray, flowers, adornments and sentiments to finish cards
