Peep this fun glow in the dark card creation that is sure to make you WOW!
You are in for a treat today, as our designer, Kendra, shows us how to create a simple card with a SWEET special effect! Glow in the dark eyes!!!! Who doesn’t love interactive cards? This simple cover die makes quick and easy Halloween cards that are sure to delight. Be sure to see the “glowing” image at the end; it really looks so frightfully amazing in the dark!
How to make this card:
- Kendra started her card by creating an A2 sized card base.
- Die cut ‘5730D Goodly Eyes Die‘ from white cardstock two times and from black cardstock once. (Set one white and one black layer on the side) Adhere one white googly eye layer to a piece of lime green cardstock.
- Add glow in the dark embossing paste to the white and lime green background. Set aside to dry. Once dried, add the other white layer to the top. (This is optional, Kendra did so she could have a little white layer behind the black one)
- Trim about 1/16″ off the left and top sides of the layer. Adhere black layer to the top so you can see a little of the white behind each of the eyes. Adhere to card base.
- Die cut smallest rectangle from ‘5728D Narrow A2 Nested Rectangle Die‘ from black cardstock. Die cut second from smallest rectangle from white cardstock. Adhere together.
- Die cut the letter ‘B’ two times and the letter ‘O’ four times from ‘5140-01D Upper Case Alpha w/Stitch‘ from lime green cardstock. Adhere one ‘BOO’ to rectangle layers. Adhere rectangle to bottom right of card base.
- Add glow embossing paste to other set of ‘BOO’ letters. Adhere on top of other letters.
- Die cut two smallest webs from ‘5216-01D Bats and Spider Webs Die‘ from vellum. Adhere one to bottom left of sentiment rectangle and other to top right.
- Finish card by adding a black rhinestone to each corner of the googly eye background.
And, now we turn the lights off! Drum Roll Please………………
