CAS195 Pearly Leaves

Photo Details

Poster: flaxychick

I used one of all time favorite techniques for this card... Painted pearls! The leaves were stamped with yellow, olive, rust and red ink, then I painted micro pearl Pearlex over the leaves with future floor was as the binder. The result was a small enough bleed on the ink to lightly color the leaves, leaving them with a pearly sheen. The sentiment is from SRM stickers. Thanks for looking.

Floor wax? As the binder? Incredible. I am a BIG fan of leaf cards. I covet them. Right into my favs. Wonderful job.

I only wish I could see this IRL. It sounds so shimmery and gorgeous. It is beautiful enough, just wish we could see the pearly effect.
