Below is a quick tutorial for how I put my card together.

I colored up my News Anchor with Copic Markers, fussy cut him out and set him aside. Next, I took a piece of blending cardstock and blended Salvaged Patina and Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Inks.

Once my panel was blended, I splatted my panel with water, then Peacock Feathers Distress Ink and then Ink on 3 Liquid Pixie Dust.

I placed my Simple Sunburst Stencil over my panel, tacked it down with Pixie Tape, and used my Stencil Pal to spread an even coat of Transfer Gel Blanco. I removed my stencil, set my panel aside to dry entirely, and washed my tools immediately.

Once my panel was entirely dry, I placed a piece of  Teal Waters Flock Transfer Sheet on to of my panel, and processed it through my laminator, panel side up.

I grabbed a piece of scrap navy cardstock, placed a cut out “Congrats” sentiment by the Sentiments 2 by Unity Transfer Adhesives, and processed it through my laminator.

I then placed a piece of Silver Deco Foil on top and processed the piece through my laminator once again. I fussy cut the sentiment after it was foiled.

I trimmed down a toner sheet to 6″ x 6″, placed a piece of Blue Waves Transfer Foil by Brutus Monroe, and processed it through my laminator.

Using my stitched star die cuts, I die cut out 3 stars from my Blue Waves toner sheet.

I heat embossed the sentiment “Best News Ever” in Snowfall Embossing Powder and die cut it with a sentiment strip die.

My card was ready for assembly! I used a combination of 1/16″ iCraft 3D Foam Tape in White and UltraBond adhesive to adhere my elements together! My card was completed!

Below are a few more images of my final project!
