I love cherries. It would possibly have to be one of my favourite Summer fruits - which is probably why I planted three trees - along with peaches, nectarines, apricots.......
So as I passed some in the supermarket the other day I couldn't resist them. Though I do try to buy only Australian fruit, these beautiful, large, plump American cherries screamed at me to be bought! And they were incredible. So it got me thinking, "I haven't used the Tart and Tangy stamp set yet from Stampin" Up! yet". So I did.
I have used the large FTI brads from the Wintertime collection, and thought I would add a little sparkle.
To do this you take some tweezers to hold the brad in, so that you don't burn your fingers, and heat the end with a heat gun and quickly dip in to AED Hot Set Powder. You will see it melt immediately, but heat a little more and then I dipped again and heated and then in to the AED Superfine Glitter, and heated briefly to set.
I gave this a try with coloured brads and coloured glitter as well, and they looked fantastic. So give this a go today and if you are feeling brave drop me an email with your card and I will post it here to share.
Have a great weekend,
