Now that Christmas is over I can focus on playing again. I have bee playing with my mdf ATC cards that I received as random act of kindness from Lou Withers. (you may remember that I decorated the box and one side of one card a couple of months ago).
Inspired by Lou I wanted to play with the Amsterdam Pearl Medium and my Pinata inks. I had also prepared some egg shells, as I loved the effect they gave on the little drawer unit I made.
I spread the Pearl Medium on the card and added the egg shells, and then a little more pearl medium, and then added random drops of the inks whilst it was still wet. When it had dried I added a little touch of pebeo gilding wax.
I also recently invested in Craft Artist Flower Modelling Foam - wow love this stuff. I die cur some flowers and leaves with John Next Door dies. I coloured the m slightly with some ink pads and shaped them. (I haven't tried heating the foam yet, but it is on my todo list to try). I added a gem and some Nuvo drops to the centre I then used an Imagination Crafts stencil on black card with Nuvo clear and added white detail embossing powder. Rather than cut it out with a straight edge, once embossed I cut it out around the letters
Really pleased with how the experiment turned out - really shines in real life - although I have sprayed it with Crafter Companion spray and shine since taking the photo.
