FAUX MOTHER OF PEARL TECHNIQUE

             

Evening all,

Not very often I am inspired at this time of night but it was so warm and humid I had to get into my air conditioned craft room to create.  Tonight made this very simple card using the Frosted White Shimmer paste to create the Fauz Mother of Pearl background.  To do this you will need:

  •  A paper plate
  • Some cling wrap

All the supplies will be listed below.    If you wish to purchase any products used here, be sure to just click on the SHOP WITH ME BUTTON above right here on my blog site.  That will take you directly to my shop.  

  1. Scrunch up the cling wrap.
  2. Add some Shimmer Paste onto paper plate.
  3. Dab the cling wrap into the paste and apply onto your cardstock. (I used Whisper White cardstock for this card)
  4. With a Blending Brush (ie you can use a roller or a dauber) apply the ink of your choice. 
  5. Once covered the desired amount of cardstock (I used a 12 x 12 sheet and did three different coloured inks) you can wipe off excess ink and the ink will stay on the cardstock except in the areas where you have applied the shimmer paste!  Voila!!!

I mounted the card onto a few layers as to give it a bit of an extra frame.  The two pictures above ar of the same card but I wanted to capture to shimmer!  

Hope you like tonight's very simple card!  

Until next time...

Keep on Stampin
