DID YOU KNOW SERIES!

Hello everyone!! I’m here today again with another product from ETC Papers. They have a product that I know you will love. It’s Glitter Paper!! Yes, glitter paper that does not create a mess. As a matter of fact, I’m going to share with you what I created by printing on glitter paper.

ETC Inkjet Printable Glitter Paper come in three colors:

White
Champagne
Silver

This cardstock is a printable inkjet glitter paper that comes the three different color glitter finish. It come in a 8.5 by 11 sheet size. It has a smooth surface, with no mess glitter falling off.

Note: You can only use it with an INKJET PRINTER!

It will make your prints sparkle and shine beautifully.

Lets take a look:

First up: Simple sentiment printing

I used the White Inkjet Printable Glitter to create these sentiment only cards. I used Photoshop to properly place each sentiment so that I could print both cards on one sheet of paper.

These quotes were taken from the a commencement speech that I heard this past Saturday.

Super easy and no damage at all to my printer.

Second up: Background Printing

For this card I used the Silver Inkjet Printable Glitter Paper to create this glittery background. I used Hero Arts Artisitc Circles Digital Kit to create this amazing background. I used Concord and 9th All About You Dies to complete the card.

Here’s a closer look:

Can you see the glitter in this view? Its so pretty in person!!

Third up: Color Printing

For this card I used the Silver Inkjet Printable Glitter Paper to create this glittery background. I used Hero Arts Pretty Blossoms to add the flower in the center of this card. I used Photoshop to add the orange color to the flower. I used Papertrey Ink Ways to Say Thank You Die to finish the card off.

This card and the card above was printed on the same cardstock to save paper.

Take a look at all three of the colors:

Top row: White glitter paper, Champagne glitter paper, Silver glitter paper

Bottom row: White glitter paper, Champagne glitter paper, Silver paper

I love how all of these cards turned out!! I have a quick video of these cards printing that’s posted on Instagram.

Be mindful: Wrong side Printing

I made a boo-boo while I printing on one of the sheets. I put the sheet in the printer on the wrong side.

Take a look:

You can tell its the wrong side: 1. there is no glitter and 2. the label is on that side. LOL

Here’s a closer look:

So be mindful when you place your paper in your printer. Your printer will tell you which side is up.

Now let’s take a look at all of my completed cards:

Hello everyone!! I’m so excited to be here today!! I have some great news for all of you.

I have this series on Instagram called the “Did You Know Series”! Its a series where I introduce my followers to new products that they may or may not know about. I give them all of the information about the product, show them what they can do with the product and let them know where to find it.

I decided that I wanted to bring the series to my blog for those of you who aren’t on Instagram!! Yayyyy!!

This is my first Did You Know Series for 2017 and I’m introducing ETC Papers!

ETC Papers is your source for speciality papers and other good stuff. The speciality paper is actual Wood Paper! Yes, real wood!

Large sheets are carefully extracted from nature’s canvas, pressed into thin sheets and backed with an adhesive backing. Then they are cut and packaged into fine products that you can use to create amazing products with!!

You can stamp on it!

You can die cut and punch holes!

wood-tag-with-white-backing

Die cutting this wood paper is as easy as die cutting regular card stock.
The hole was nice and clean after the punch. The eyelet and washer didn’t ripe the backing.

You can color on it!

wood-tag-with-black-backing

The color pencils went on so easy! I was able to blend on the wood with no problem.

The wood takes the color of the backing!

kt-wood-paper-backing

The tag on the left has a black card stock backing and the tag on the right only has the adhesive back paper. You can see the difference in the darkness and lightness of the tags.

You can letterpress the wood also!!

letterpressing

The wood paper didn’t break or separate when it when through the big shot with this letterpress plate. It took on the ink with no problem and the ink did not bleed through.

It has an adhesive backing!

showing-the-backing

The adhesive backing is the highlight of this paper. It makes it so easy to add the wood panel to the front of a card stock base. It comes off with no tugging.

removing-the-backing

I folded the backing so that I could add the wood panel to the card stock without worrying if the panel is on straight. I lined the edges up and simple pulled the backing off to create a perfect wood card front.

Here’s the finished card!
