Holographic Paper Card for Joyful Stars August Blog Hop


Hello and welcome to the Joyful Stars August Blog Hop.  Thanks for joining us today.  If you have come from Joyce's Blog, then you are on the right track.  Today I have a card made using the fabulous Close To My Heart Holographic Paper.  This paper has a foil coating and it gives a holographic effect.  The colors seem to change based on the lighting, the viewing angle and even the other paper it is paired with.  You really need to see it in person - the photos really don't do it justice.  I used Z3636 the Oasis Holographic Paper.  In the book this paper look green, however in my sample it looks bluish green at one angle and pinkish orange when it catches the light.  I kept the card really simple - I wanted a clean contemporary look so the paper would be the star.  I cut the flowers using a card from the Close To My Heart Cricut Cartridge Artfully Sent.  This paper cuts so beautifully!  There were no rough edges and it was easy to come off the mat.  


Here is another view of the same card - I photographed it in low light.  You can see how the paper seems to change color!  Working with this paper is a lot of FUN!
 I hope you will try this fabulous paper!
Now it is time to hop on over to Marie's Blog to see her creation.

  1. Such a pretty card, Betty! You're right--photographs don't do this pretty paper justice.
