We have a fun new bundle of products in the Online Exclusives… The Simply Sparkling Stamp Set and Dies. I paired this bundle of products together with some items that will be debuting on January 4th in Stampin’ Up!’s Jan-April 2024 Mini Catalog to make some fun and trendy greeting cards!

With the Silver Foil Specialty Paper recently sold out and the Holographic Specialty Paper currently unavailable in the US market, I decided to look into other ways to create a metallic look for the soda/pop can images. One way is to color creatively with Stampin’ Blends alcohol-based markers. And another way is to add Enamel Effects (a big thank you to fellow Stampin’ Up! demonstrator, Kylie Bertucci for sharing her fun Simply Sparkling cards recently that encouraged me to play around with the effects).

I just showed live on YouTube and on Facebook about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating these metallic effects with these fun Stampin’ Up!® product. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for what I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel or tune into my events on my Facebook Page so you can get updates when I share and go live).
