Sequined Cards

Hello!
Welcome to Kristie Kreates.
Today I have a few cards to share with you.
They were made after seeing 
this video by Marion Emberson
I loved the technique she used and decided to 
do my own cards inspired by hers.
Of course mine don't look like hers,
but as I always like to say
"Inspiration not replication"
A short explanation of the technique is
that I put glue across the middle of the
panel, then using a brush spread the glue 
out to either side of the panel.
I then applied embossing powder and heated it
until it was all melted.
Once everything was embossed, I added another line
of glue and sprinkled sequins onto the glue and let it
dry.  I love how my cards turned out.
This technique can have many different looks,
depending on the amount of glue you use and how
much you spread it out.  Also what kind of 
embossing powder and the colors makes a big
difference.
Hop on over and watch Marion's video and see how
her cards turned out.

Thanks for spending time here at Kristie Kreates,
I hope you will come again soon.
Until then,
emboss on!
