Steps
Cut
a 4” football from the kraft-colored cardstock and a 4” football shadow
from white cardstock using the Cricut Sports Mania cartridge and Expression
Die Cut machine.
Working
on the Non-Stick Craft Sheet, use the Pitch Black Pigment pad direct
to the paper to colorize the entire football.
Pigment ink stays wet for a longer period
of time, so it is a great choice when you want to heat emboss
a diecut or a stamped image.
Place
the colored football onto a piece of scrap paper and pour the Frosted
Crystal embossing powder over the entire die cut. Remove the excess
powder and place it back into the jar. Use the Heatit Craft Tool to
melt the powder. Once you are finished, allow it to cool.
Tap
a piece of Cut ‘N Dry Foam into the Espresso Pigment pad and randomly
add color to the diecut. Repeat with Red Pepper pad, going back and
forth until the desired color is achieved.
Again,
place the diecut on a scrap piece of paper. Pour the Frosted Crystal
embossing powder over the entire die cut. Remove the excess powder and
place it back into the jar. Use the Heatit Craft Tool to melt the powder.
Once you are finished, allow it to cool
Glue
the embossed diecut to the white shadow diecut, making sure to thoroughly
glue the pieces together.
Fill
in the stitches of the football with White Opal Liquid Pearls. You should
start the flow of paint by squeezing it onto a piece of scrap paper
first. Once you are finished, allow it to dry.
Liquid Pearls are a pearlescent acrylic paint
that can be applied to your project straight from the bottle for
a dimensional effect, or you can use a paintbrush to apply them.
You can even add water to make a watercolor paint.
