You know how you order stamps from some companies and they come wrapped in tissue paper? I never throw that tissue paper away. It's PERFECT for the Faux Silk technique!!! That's what I did here on this card, except I added an extra step. I sprayed the tissue paper with Mountain Mist Glimmer Mist and let it dry. I gotta have my shimmer!! :-)

I am with you, I do not throw away tissue paper. I even order from one company that sends their cards in bags inside the mailer and save that too. Oh how i should have used that on my card. This is wonderful!
