The First Edition ‘All That Glistens’ papers are so beautiful, I love the gold, glitters, creams and warm black tones, wonderful patterns and a vintage feel throughout.
I also have the First Edition Build a Unicorn die set that has been waiting patiently for just the right project, so I teamed the papers with the dies to create this magical Christmas Unicorn.

How To:
Cut glittered snowflake paper 15.5cm square and mat onto slightly larger music pattern paper, inking all cut edges with gold ink first. Attach panel to front of a 17cm square white base card.
Cut a cream text pattern paper 13.5cm square and mat onto slightly larger music pattern paper, inking all edges of both pieces as before.
Apply a gold glittered photo corner to 3 corners only, omitting bottom right corner, affix panel centrally onto card front using d/s tape.
Die cut Unicorn pieces as follows: horn from gold glitter card and back onto music note paper and cut out, adhere to centre top on card front using 3D foam pads to give height. Cut 2 large ears from music pattern paper and 2 inner ears from gold dotty paper, ink edges and layer up using 3D foam pads. Add to card, slightly angled and one either side of the unicorn horn.
Create 2 layered snowflake flowers using 2 different size snowflakes from gold and white glitter cards and vellum. Create a centre flower by die-cutting the large flower first from gold & white striped paper, and 1 from vellum and inking edges with gold ink, then layer a snowflake on top cut from the gold foil spotted paper. Layer all snowflake flowers and attach across unicorn using 3D foam pads. Top each flower with an adhesive gem or pearl.
Die cut the Angel Wing die 3 times from gold glitter card and glue one as a forelock just under flowers. Position the other too as a flowing mane at right hand side. Only add glue to the top, so the bottom edges are free and can be shaped as desired.
Die Cut Unicorn lashes from black glitter card and glue in place on card front. Adhere 2 small glitter enamel dots as nostrils lower down the card.
To finish, add the sentiment across top left corner, glue on 2 glitter wooden stars and thread 2 gold jingle bells onto gold thread and attach so they dangle In the mane section.
