I recently participated in a 4-day Card Maker Success Summit online. It was a great experience, and I learned a lot of new techniques.
I don't often make one-layer cards, but Justine Hovey's tutorials prompted me to do some. I actually did four of her cards, two of them included a Karen Burniston pop-up die on the inside. I also made them two-layer cards, popping up the front panels on foam strips.
Two of them have snow. Justine's tutorial called for an embossing folder, which I did not have. I did, however, have a snowfall stencil; so I used that with some glittery embossing paste. The coloring on the cards was done with blending brushes and distress oxide inks and masking paper.
As I said, two of the cards also included a Karen Burniston pop-up, as well as smaller versions of the front image.
Here are close-up photos of the other two cards.
I thoroughly enjoyed the four-day experience and will use many of the techniques I learned in the future.
