This was another thing I made at the Christmas Club at the Craft Barn. Chris Dark showed us how to do a background using gelatos - paint a background of gesso on to a sheet of paper (the kind you'd use to make cards from) making sure you don't have a particularly smooth surface. When it's dry, scribble gelatos onto it and then use a wet wipe to move it around slightly. You need to be quite careful with this - it's easy to move it all away! When it's dry, stamp over the top in Versamark ink and add embossing powder (we used snowflake stamps). Then use a heat gun to emboss - making sure you get all of it done (otherwise you find out later on when you're trying to make cards......). Then you just cut it up for your cards - I chose specific bits to use. On top we put cut out snowflakes, and added a small self adhesive gem in the middle. You can also outline the masterboard cut outs with stickles - I did but I doubt you can see it here.
