FF17LuvLee Hibiscus Disaster

Photo Details

Poster: Clownmom

Sometimes you get a winner; other times you get a disaster. In this case, I think it's the latter. Lee's description of how to create "Iced Leather" for her Falliday challenge was pretty straight-forward. I thought I had Heat 'n Stick. Do you think I could find it? Nope. So I tried brushable glue instead -- with not very good results. Oh, well. There are 30 challenges. If I blow just one of them badly, I figure I'm ahead!

Love all the sparkle that you added to this card. Great HFC flower you added to bring this BG to life. Wonderful job on the technique.

Gorgeous flower! Love the colors. Touches of glitter looks pretty. Maybe not what you hoped for, but not a disaster. Lovely card. Glad you stuck with it! TFS

I don’t think it is a disaster! It is lovely, Lois! And, I have times when I can’t find stuff I know I have! No couldn’t find my Yupa paper when I needed and looked for it for hours; of course I found it later!
