For the technique lover's challenge! Thanks Lynn for giving me a use for my acrylic paint! I love the results this technique gives. I forced myself away from my bold bright colors and went with some rich regals and WOW! I clear embossed my notes to give a more leatherlike sheen to my purse, and embellished with lucious velvet ribbon that was a RAK, as well as some copper cording and a metal plaque. This will be a gift for my brother's friend Meredith who is a collector of purses! Thanks for looking!!
