Celebrate - Mosaic Technique and Curvy Celebrations Release

Welcome back to my blog. This month marks the release of Stampin' Up!®  Curvy Celebrations/Quite Curvy Variety Bundle. For todays card, I am using my the Scrappy Strips/Mosaic technique (see my previous post for more information- with credit to Linda Driggs for the Mosaic technique and demonstrated by Kylie and Bruno Bertucci). 

I figure this is a perfect card for an anniversary or New Years celebration and given the year that we have all had, it is nice to think of more positive things for the future.

I used a standard Whisper White A4 card base cut in half, then used a card front sized piece of Basic Black cardstock and attached it to the front of the card with some removable tape. I then used the Curvy Die and die cut and  created the curve with the Whisper White/Basic Black at the same time. I also cut a piece of Gold Foil with the die. 

I created Scrappy Strips onto another piece of Basic Black card, using Gold, Silver and Copper Foil and some Black Glitter Paper. Once they were dry ( I had attached them with Multipurpose Liquid Glue), I cut them down again to create the mosaic effect. I then attached those 1/4" Mosaic strips to the Basic Black piece that I had cut for the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. 

I trimmed the overhanging strip edges off, and then I attached the mosaic/Basic Black piece onto the die cut Gold Foil piece. I attached all of it using Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the card front. 

I stamped a sentiment using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink from the 'Many Mates' stamp set onto the card base. I then attached Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the front of the card to "bling" it up some more.
