There are three techniques that need to be used for this challenge so I will list them first.
Faux Cloisonne…I don’t have magazines. To be able to do the technique I used a piece of glossy card stock and applied Distress alcohol inks lettuce, eggplant and cranberry.
This gave me the glossy look of a magazine page.
Next I stamped the image from Unity Stamp Company “…girl truly” with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with silver embossing powder.
Stamping…I started with a white card stock base card and added a strip of black card stock before stamping the sentiment from Pinkfresh “Floral Notes” set with Versafine black ink.
Diecutting…From silver card stock I die cut the frame using dies from Pinkfresh “Essentials inverted stitched scallop circles” and glued the trimmed flowers to the inside of the frame before trimming the edge.
This I foam taped to the black strip.
What beautiful flowers, Arlene! I love your alcohol inked background and it is perfect for this cloisonné challenge! A beautiful card! Thanks so much for sharing this with us at CAS Mix Up!
ReplyDeleteVery clever use of your materials to make the Faux Cloisonne technique, and a really dramatic card with the black panel behind it. Another stunning card Arlene and I love it
