The pack contains two 12" x 12" sheets each of the 2023-2025 In Colours and I chose to work with the Boho Blue.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;">The Luster paper has a coating which means that it can handle the water. It does also mean, however, that ink tends to sit on top and needs patience or a heat tool to dry sufficiently. I had so much fun I really thought it was worth it! Depending upon how much water has been applied, the paper may warp a little - just pop it under something heavy for a while to help flatten it again.</span></div><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-size: medium;">Apply a coat of ink all over the luster paper. <br /><b>TIP:</b> choose a shade that will provide sufficient contrast to the paper colour either in a similar colour for a monochromatic project or a different colour.<br /><br /></span></li><li><span style="font-size: medium;">Dry the ink thoroughly with a heat tool (or wait until it's dry)<br /><br /></span></li><li><span style="font-size: medium;">Use Stazon Jet Black ink (or alternative permanent, water-proof ink) to stamp the image. <br /><b>TIP:</b> It's best to use a stamping platform because I have found that I always need to stamp the image at least 2 or 3 times to get an image that's dark enough. <br /><b>TIP:</b> The chosen image should have clear lines and be suitable for colouring. <br /> </span></li><li><span style="font-size: medium;">Dry the ink thoroughly with a heat tool (or wait until it's dry)<br /><br /></span></li><li><span style="font-size: medium;">Use a brush to paint water onto the image, a section at time, and then blot with a clean piece of paper towel. This will lift the ink from that area. Repeat until you're satisfied with the amount of ink that's lifted. You could use a Water Painter (<a href="https://www.stampinup.com.au/products/water-painters?demoid=4010442" target="_blank">151298</a>) but I find this gives me less control than I like.<br /><b>TIP:</b> Unless you want to transfer ink from one place to another, rinse the brush before each water application.<br /><b>TIP:</b> To avoid accidents and finger prints, use a piece of paper towel to hold your project and under your working hand. Moisture from your hands will also lift the ink.<br /><b>TIP:</b> for the more advanced or adventurous - try leaving some shadows (eg under petals) by varying the amount of ink that you lift and/or transferring some of the ink </span></li></ol></div><div><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

We have celebrated successes, inspired each other and in the bleaker times their messages have brought love, comfort and the knowledge that I'm not alone. And then something really magical happens and a bond forged in mutual interests and creativity develops into a warm friendship that goes way beyond card-making. </p><p>This card was inspired by my friend RaeDeen and I really wish I'd done a better job!!</p><p>My dislike of wastage is well-documented but the embarrassing step by step photos below (which I share as a cautionary tale!) are testament to the fact that a certain amount of planning is beneficial.

If the die is intricate, you may wish to place Adhesive Sheet to both sides of the card. Check that the die has cut through all the layers before you remove it and run it through your die cutting machine again if necessary.</p><p>For the card above, my base card is Mango Melody to which I added a layer of Basic Black embossed with the Tasteful Textile folder.</p><p>I cut my adhesive sheet with a Flowering Vines Die - these dies will be available from 5th January to 30th June 2021 in the new Mini Catalogue.</p><p>I applied the die cut to my card front and then embellished with the gold flakes as described above.</p><p>I cut the base layer of the poppy from Mango Melody cardstock and the top, intricate layer, from adhesive sheet with a backing of Mango Melody card (because I wanted a raised look). Having adhered the top layer to the base layer, I then applied the gold flakes as described above and added the centre cut from black cardstock.</p><p>To add a bit more interest to the card, I adhered the poppy to the cardfront by using Multipurpose Liquid Glue at the bottom the flower and a Stampin' Dimensional towards the top of the flower so that the top of the flower pops out a bit from the gold background.</p><p></p><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

This make the glue residue removal easy.</li><li>I keep an old toothbrush in my craft room and employ this to remove the glue residue from the stamps.</li><li>As soon as I've finished with my "glue mat", I rinse it thoroughly under running warm water and then give it a bit of a soapy wash and a final rinse. Let it dry thoroughly before using it again.</li><li>The gold flakes are incredibly light and float all over the place at the slightest opportunity. So, instead of trying to get the unused flakes back into their original pot, I keep a little box handy and pop them in there. Cardboard is better than plastic or acrylic because of the effect of static on the flakes!</li></ul><div>Have fun with these gorgeous flakes - try gilding 3D articles or gilding a straight line by applying some Tear & Tape and then the gilding flakes.</div></div><div><br /></div>Thank you for visiting.<div>'Til next time!</div><div>Stephanie</div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Obviously, a 6" square card is more comfortable to make (in terms of score line placement) but it's very convenient to use an A4 piece of cardstock rather than a 12" square.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I started with a piece of Basic Black measuring 29cm x 14.5cm, scored in half at 14.5cm. The finished card is a 14.5cm square. On the top flap of the card, I scored lines radiating from the centre bottom (7.25cm) to three locations on each side of the piece: the top corner, 4.8cm and 9.6cm down. I then folded following Sam's instructions.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I put a layer of Cinnamon Cider (14cm square) cardstock onto the "inside" of the card, followed by a layer of World of Good Designer Series Paper (12.5cm square).</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I had intended to also place a layer of the Cinnamon Cider onto the triangular flap (I had even cut it!) but at the last minute decided that I preferred it without.
