WT454 Magic Snowflake
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 This is for today's WT challenge -WT454 Em, Boss, To Resist is Not Futile.

For this card I tried out the Magic Snowflake technique.
I used Peacock Feather and Faded Jeans as my reinkers, and wow - it really was magic.
Since you add rubbing alcohol to the cotton wool, I thought this should work with alcohol inks rather than regular reinkers and gave it a try. I'm pretty sure that was the only variable I introduced, but for some reason I didn't get the magic reappearing effect. Ho hum...

Base is embossed with a snowflake ef, maybe hard to see in the photo. Snowflake hexagons are outlined with a Sakura Stardust pen and popped up on foam. Snowflake panel matted on black and popped up on foam too. I tried a hexagonal "magic" panel but liked he square better. I finished it off with a gem in the centre, and a little tag with a silver bow.
I'll definitely be trying this technique again - must find a local source of glossy card!!

Love the design of your card, and the focal point with the technique is striking. Great sample for your challenge. tfs

Super! Your resist is beautiful, especially set against the black and white. Love that you stitched in blue to tie together with the BG of the flake.

Gorgeous card! I love the main snowflake! I've never tried that technique--it's so pretty with the surrounding colors!

So beautiful, Sabrina! Mine wasn't so "magical" since I didn't use the correct solution! I wondered why the snowflake didn't completely cover up. : ) I got inky though.....Love the black snowflakes on the side just the way you placed them! Beautiful wintry card~
