Live... Laugh...Love



What a cool challenge at CAS Mix Up this month - Layered Embossing Powders.... just right for me to dig into that drawer with all the old old old EPs... some just don't work anymore.  And it just so happened that shopping at the craft shop recently on the chuck out table was 'Leaf' coloured EP so that came home with me and became the background swipe for my card.  I tried adding layers of EP to die cut discs, they looked cool but kept curling up and then cracking... I had in mind to make a dream catcher... and then I remembered I had this medallion die so that became my dream catcher.  I inked the center with turquoise and used White Pearl EP,  I inked the next round with Versamark and Gold Sparkly EP and the outer edge with Silver EP and the the whole thing with Clear Thick EP.  Then I stamped my  leaf with Archival Ink onto bits of my 'experiments' and fussy cut them.  To finish I stamped my sentiment and arranged my dream catcher and feathers over the lime green.  I am also playing along with Just Add Ink Colour challenge #413.  Thanks for visiting and enjoy your day

  1. The layered embossing on your dreamcatcher is beautiful Robyn! It adds such pretty shine and shimmer along with a gorgeous mix of colours. The leaf green embossed background really shows off the dreamcatcher! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up! xx
