CARD: Lovely as a Tree Dryer Sheet Beauty and Video

lovely as a tree-stampinup-stampwithtamiThe “dryer sheet” technique is one of my most popular videos ever (click here or scroll below). It is so easy and beautiful,  I used it again to create this swap card for Stampin’ Up Leadership in Houston a couple of weeks ago.

Along with the dryer sheet technique, I used the Woodgrain impressions folder for the background and rubbed white craft ink over the top “direct to paper”.

  1. This card is beautiful!

  2. Thanks for this great video. I can’t wait to try out this great dryer sheet technique.

  3. Thanks for more great Stampin Up ideas.

  4. When you use this technique, how much glitter falls off the card?? I love it, but my husband doesn’t love glitter as much as I do. 🙂

    • Hi Kim, if you flick the back really good you will release most of any “loose” powder. You can also spray lightly with hairspray. but honestly, I haven’t noticed much (if any) glitter fall out. Tami

  5. It is most definitely a WOW card!!!! Here I come Walmart for all of your bounce dryer sheets!! LOL

  6. I made one of these cards using recycled dryer sheet it really does have a WOW factor when you get it done. Thanks for showing us again so I didn’t forget how beautiful they really are.

  7. Will an added greeting stick to the front of the card after it has been glittered, or will the glitter prevent good adhesion? I would like to add a popped up greeting if possible.

    Hi Tami – this is a fun technique to do – I have been sharing it with my stamp club ladies for about 3 years now – instead of the spray adhesive we use a Xyron machine – that is how I learned to do it – can’t remember where I originally learned from – we usually use Lovely As a Tree or a couple of the Thomas Kincaid stamps that I have – one of my gals has a background stamp that is all butterflies so we did try that one – we used Pretty in Pink & Raspberry Ripple. I will check to see if I have any photos of them and email them to you.
