Let it Shine! 5 Ways to Add Shine To One Card!!

Hello Crafters! How are you? Today I’m sharing a project I created for the “Let it Shine” class from Altenew that I took as part of my Altenew Certified Educator Programme. It’s my last class for Level 1, so I’m excited to progress onto the assessment! I decided to combine lots of different ways of adding shine to a project onto one card! (5 in fact!!). I did hot foiling, heat embossing, I coloured with glitter gel pens, used foiled cardstock and gems!!

The Inky Bouquet stamp set from Altenew that I used for this project is actually the same stamp set that I used for my last 2 Tuesday projects (which you can find HERE and HERE). I wanted to show lots of different ways to use the same stamp set – I think all three projects have really different looks to them.
