first time with the mica stains…


When I came across this challenge I had just unpacked my new Autumn Distress Mica Stains and there was flickering candle (yellow) and jack-o-lantern (orange).
The base card is white card stock that I applied Distress ink fossilized amber around the outside edge.
Next I added a piece of black card stock.
The main piece is white car stock with Ranger crackle texture paste wiped through the Tim Holtz “Harlequin” stencil.
Once dry I applied the mica stains.
This I applied to the base card.
To finish I die cut three sentiments from Scrapbook.com “Celebrate” and glued them together before applying them to the card front.

Happy Birthday Color Hues!
