Icicle Tutorial

I saw this on a fellow stampers blog. Thanks goes to Roxy for the great idea! I just fell in love with this technique it is soo cute! Just another way to use crystal Effects which I had a hard time finding uses for.

All you need is


Crystal Effects


Dazzling Diamonds Glitter


Wax Paper


and patience..



Start by making a straight line of Crystal effects directly on you wax paper.



Make your icicles by adding different length vertical lines from the horizontal one




Cover with Glitter. If you want them really sparkly totally cover but for a more suttle look just a dash of glitter will do.



Let them alone (over night is best or all day)..Don't touch them to see if there ready!!! Tempting I know but it wrecks them so hands off! LOL. I try to make a few extras at a time that way when you feel creative you don't have to wait until the next day to create.


Viola sparkly icicles oooo ahhhhh. :) Enjoy! For this card I used Sift Sky River Rock and Very Vanilla CS, black Gingham Ribbon Wonderful Words and Holiday Blitz Stampset.
