Instructions in 5 steps With our marble effect paint, you'll achieve an exceptional card in no time at all. Pour some water into a bucket for marbling, then dip the card in. Use an organza ribbon and stamps to customise your decoration - your one-of-a-kind item is ready!

Besides the articles listed below, you also need: Plastic bucket, Copy paper, Disposable gloves

And this is how it works:

Step 1

Choose a plastic bucket that is enough large/deep to dip the card thoroughly into it. Then, fill the plastic bucket with cold water. Thereafter, shake well the Marble paint bottles (about 30 sec), especially the silver one since this colour contains metal particles. Drip the three colours successively as near to the water surface. Then immediately draw the marble pattern with a wooden skewer.

Step 2

We advise you to wear disposal gloves. Halve the twofold card. Immerse slowly the card/envelope, retain it that way for a while and take it out quickly. Before taking out, puff a bit onto the water surface so that the paint flows to the edge. let the card/envelope dry well out.

Step 3

Remove the paint residues with a sheet of paper (with the edge of the paper). The water must be clean for a further marbling. If heavily soiled, use fresh water.

Step 4

Cut a blank out of the marbled paper measuring 9 x 6.5cm and affix it onto the square-shaped card by means of the double-sided adhesive tape. Stamp the other half of the white card by means of the stamp “Merci” and the stamp pad and then, finish the paper cut-out of 7.5 x 5cm. Cut it so close that the word “Merci” is centrally located and stick it slightly diagonally onto the card over the marbled paper cut-out by means of the 3D-adhesive squares.
