I'm the host for this weeks new challenge at
The Crafty Catz Challenge.
Out theme now is
Anything Goes
I really enjoyed doing this card, It's a technique I haven't done for a while, and I think it looks so soft and feminine. I've used a stencil from Sweet Poppy called Ginko Leaves. Initially I've used inks through the stencil and allowed those to dry. Then I have re-applied the cleaned stencil over the image and used clear paste through, removed the stencil and immediately applied clear micro beads. Very light pressure is applied to make sure the beads go into the paste before the excess is removed. Then leave to dry. I've used matching card and patterned papers to layer up the image. Finally a bow and a birthday sentiment complete.
