Hello! I have a great new tool for the craft studio to share today. You might think this is a kitchen item, but today it is working GREAT on a card or two! It’s Freezer paper…a little trick I learned in a recent class from Altenew.
For my cards, I first die cut some snowflakes out of the freezer paper. Then I ironed them onto the paper with a warm iron. Then I did a little ink blending with my new favorite blending tool.
I splattered the background with more ink, and some pearl watercolors. Then I carefully removed the snowflakes…and look at those beautiful white snowflakes left behind!
The “Merry” sentiment is die cut from glitter paper, and added along with a silver foil frame. What an awesome technique! Who would’ve thought to use freezer paper? I love this and think it might even work better than masking paper.
I have a quick video to show you on how to do this, watch below or on YouTube:
Of course, once I removed the snowflakes (cut from the freezer paper), I couldn’t let them go to waste! So I made a second card on Neenah Desert Storm paper. I was interested to see if I could get them to still iron-on to this second card. Did it work?…yes and no. Lol.
Most of them DID iron back on, but I had one problem snowflake. So what did I do?! I used a little liquid adhesive and Nuvo drops to help keep it stuck down!! Lol. There’s more than one way to make a card work.
I added some extra Nuvo drops and white gel pen to this one, to finish it off. Which one do you like better?
I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards, so I’ve made a list here using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!
I absolutely love these colors for a holiday card. Thanks for stopping by!
May your days be filled with sunshine,
LOVE these! They look incredible, Kari!
