Photo Details

Poster: cullenwr

The CAS Challenge is to create a simple background by stamping directly to paper with an ink pad. I tweaked the technique a bit by stamping the Peacock Feathers distress ink pad on an acrylic block and then stamped it on watercolor paper. I blended the ink a bit using water with a brush. I layered a diecut snowflake (SU Bigz die) cut from silver glitter CS (SU) and topped it off witb a die cut button (MFT) threaded with silver cording. I then clear embossed the sentiment that was stamped with Versamark Onyx Black ink. I'm not sure I like the kraft card base...the jury is still out on that choice!

i like how your ink puddled on the acrylic block to give a snowing like theme to your pretty snow flake.

a little bit of this and that
there is no thrill quite like doing something you didn't know you could.

Nice tweaking, Wanda. I love the button in the center of the flake.
