For today's Try a New Technique Challenge, TLC185 - Embossed Shimmer. I didn't have any Lumiere on hand, so used a Copper Paint Dabber instead. To the copper paint I added a drop of Peeled Paint Reinker and using a brush, stippled the paint mixture onto a piece of acetate. While it was still wet, and wanting a bit more of a patina finish, I stippled on Green Patina Perfect Pearls. Once the paint had dried, I ran the acetate through the Wizard using the Cuttlebug Bird Call Embossing Folder. I attached acetate to the card front by placing a drop of Ranger Matte Accents in each corner. The sentiment panel was hung from the corner of the card using Tim Holtz idea-ology embellishments.

What a wonderful, inspirational card this is! I love how the soft image of the bird on that great background panel coordinates with the thoughtful sentiment. I LOVE how you attached the sentiment too. I'm amazed!!!
