I saw a video showing the Bisque Pottery technique on Diana Gibbs' blog. http://dianagibbs.typepad.com/stampi...technique.html
You brayer the inside of an embossing folder with Crumb Cake ink and then emboss a piece of Whisper White CS. It looks fab on Very Vanilla CS too. Wow, I LOVE how it turns out and I couldn't wait to try it out. I didn't have the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder at the time so I used the Cuttlebug 'Victoria' folder instead. I didn't want to cover up the embossing too much with mat layers so I thought die cut butterflies would be ideal. I do love the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz die and I'm so happy I got it as a birthday gift.
I used striped glittered paper for the largest and smallest butterflies and for the middle one I used Razzleberry CS that I embossed with the Victoria folder. I've added a pearly stamen doodad behind the large butterfly as antennae. I then made a faux button for the centre of the butterfly using the Button, Button set and circle punches. I pierced the button holes and threaded a strip of white CS through the holes. I've popped Dimensionals under each layer of wings. I love the new SU! Decorative Label punch and I decided to layer two part cut shapes for the sentiment.
