I fell in LOVE with this card and layout by Heartfeltgreetings as soon as I looked at it: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
I am working on a new TJ technique called Dry Embossed Pearls, and her card is perfect for this technique as you can see. I am very happy with the results. You brush gum arabic over CS then swipe Pearlex and once dry emboss it. I used the Cuttlebug!
For info on the TJ newsletter go to www.patstamps.com
Can you believe I have never used this set before??? I am trying to use all of the sets I had to have and have not used........

Where do you get gum arabic at?? What is it and what exactly does it do? Natural material?? I like the technique and would like to give it a try. Your color combination is soothing and uplifting all at the same time. Have a Happy....Cotton

That makes such a beautiful frame for your image. tfs
------------------------------ Happiness is peaceful moments (so I can stamp), precious memories (of stampin), and wonderful family & friends (to stamp with)
Friends are like the walls of a house. Sometimes they hold you up, sometimes you lean on them. But sometimes, it's enough to know they're just standing by.

Fantastic card and wonderful colors. Love the frame effect and the embossed pearl technique is intriguing. A subscription to Pat's newsletter is on my wishlist (too bad my birthday isn't until August).
