Artist Trading Card Swap with Embossing Powder





At Ink Fun Stampers this month I joined a ATC swap where the theme was embossing powder.  I thought it was perfect time to try a new technique from Technique Junkies called glazed shaving cream shapes.  In this technique you cut out your die cut from paper that you have dyed with shaving cream and reinkers.  I had not used the shaving cream technique for a very long time ans it was fun to experiment with.  Once I had my butterfly cut out I stamped it with a Italian love poem rubber stamp then coated the whole with clear embossing powder.  

The background paper for the ATC was made when I was playing with my reinkers and masking tape.  To complete my butterfly I added some pearls and outlined the the card with with my gold leafing pen.  Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a very creative day.
