Hi, everyone! Looking to send some cheer through the mail to one of your favorite peeps? Teri here to show you how to make a card to tell them are the very “zest”…. or best! Let me show you my You’re the Zest Card.
Zest Card Elements
Stamp and die-cutting lemon-themed images from white cardstock. Color them in with markers or pencils. Cut a few extra lemon dies! No need to stamp on them! Use them to add depth and height to one of your stamped lemons by stamping and adhering them on top of each other with the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.
Embellish the Card Panel
Take a piece of patterned paper and cut it down to fit on a card. Set the panel on scratch paper and roll some E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser onto it at the top and the bottom. Put as little or as many as you want on it!
Once you’ve placed your dots on your panel, burnish some silver foil (color side facing you) from the Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Nature Colors on top of them. This is a great way to add just a little bit of sparkle and shine to a handmade card. Adhere your panel onto a card using the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.
Assemble and Finishing Details
Add your stamped images to the card, as well as a stamped sentiment.
Complete the card by placing a few Adhesive Dots Micro on it and burnishing foil onto them. Add a few sequins or gems to the card as well.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this tutorial and are excited to make a card for one of your favorite people with some of the techniques I’ve mentioned!
Happy Creating!
