What’s a medallion you say? A medallion is an ornament, medal, etc used in design. Sweet Stamps.com has some gorgeous MEDALLION STAMPS.
Today I am using the stamps called:
There are many different techniques that would be fun to try using these MEDALLION stamps.
I chose to use lots of glitter to really make my card sparkle.
I started by stamping the MEDALLION with a pigment Silver pad and embossing it with Clear Embossing powder.
After I embossing, I started in the center and worked my way out applying glitter with a glue pen and
a dimensional glue.
After my glitter was done, I used a clear embossing pen to emboss everywhere I did not use glitter.
You can see here, the whole card is shiny and it is because I have either used glitter or a clear emboss on the whole stamped image.
To make this card extra special, I used some decorative pins and glass beads.
I love using glass beads on cards and using the jump rings to apply the beads adds a fun touch.
The MEDALLION stamp is quite large so I used a small simple word phrase to complete the card.
