You light up my world by Karen

Hello! I'm back today with my weekly Design Team Post and today's card is a Slimline card that was actually inspired by the To-Tail-Ly Awesome Slimline card I posted last week! I had some of these brightly coloured fallaway pieces leftover from that card and I decided to cut some more and add them back into the Crafty Hive die with foam tape.

After adhering double sided adhesive to the entire front of my black Slimline card base, I die cut and adhered the black card stock Crafty Hive die cut. Then those coloured fallaway pieces were added randomly, some inlaid into the openings (and onto the double sided adhesive) and others were popped up with foam tape. When I was happy with the design, I added loose glitter over the entire card front and tapped off the excess. The remaining glitter adhered to the exposed double sided adhesive, then was burnished into the adhesive with my fingers.

The sentiment is from the Valentine stamp set, stamped onto a white card stock strip and glued flat to the card.

It's hard to capture all the sparkle on this card!

I'm Karen Aicken and I'll be back next week with another Crafty Meraki project - an Owl themed Slimline Card. Have a wonderful Tuesday!
