Stampin Up Magical Day Unicorn

Hello and welcome to Amethystarcrafting. My name is Jane Allmark and I'm a UK Independent Stampin Up Demonstrator.

MAGICAL DAY BUNDLE. is such a great set with Unicorns, Dragons, Mermaids and Knights to create some beautiful mythical cards and projects.

How to make a Magical Day Unicorn card 

• Stamp 3 unicorns is Basic Black ink and colour using Stampin Blends. To achieve the pink outline use the Pink Pirouette dark Blend and the Lifter around the edge to give a soft outline to the Unicorn.
• Mount on Painted With Love Speciality Dsp. this paper has lovely gold embossing and the hearts work perfectly for this project.
• The sentiment is from Ribbon of Courage bundle. with the heart framelits die.
• To make this card pop each of the elements are mounted on gold die cuts and then a drop shadow is created to give a gold edge.  For the heart I cut out two gold hearts and mounted them under the sentiment to give a complete gold edge.
• The finished card was mounted on some Calypso Coral cardstock and on a Whisper White card base.

What is a "Drop Shadow" and how to create one.

Drop shadow is term for creating a layer of colour underneath a topper element by cutting an exact image using the same framelits or dies and then gluing them together slightly off centre to either the right or left to create the drop shadow.  The unicorns and the heart in the above card all used the drop shadow technique.

PAINTED WITH LOVE SPECIALITY DSP.

This is probably the most luxurious dsp to buy at the moment as it is embossed with gold to give a beautiful feel to any card project.
