This card is for my daughter who loves dragonflies
I have used a number of techniques in this card. Emboss Resist
Black Magic and colour blending. I have also made my own glimmery mist.
The mist reciept is very simple. You need:
A mini mister filled almost to the top with water and I put a size 6 seed bead into the mister to help stir up the spray and stop clogging.
Reinker ink of choice 3 drops into mister
Perfect Pearls of choice, take your paper snips or small sizzors and push the tip into the Perfect Pearls powder about half a centermeter what is left on the snips when you lift them out is what you put into the mister. I put three of these into this particular batch however it is better to put less in to start as you can always add more, likewise you may want the spray to be darker in which case you just add another drop of reinker or two but start off slowly and thats it.
WHAT I HAVE USED
Card; SU Basic Black, Whisper White. DP from Dollar and Cent store. (has little dragonflies on a purple background but you can't really see them just a glims
Ink; SU Craft Whisper White, Soft Sage, Taken With Teal and Versa Mark embossing ink.
