I am a Guest over at Top Tip Tuesday

 

 

 

I was recently asked if I would do a Tutorial on a technique

that I had used at an ABC Christmas Challenge.

Of course I said yes especially as it fits perfectly with the

Current Challenge at Top Tip Tuesday to MAKE YOUR OWN.

***

So here goes for my first ever TUTORIAL.

 

To start your project gather your every day supplies you have at home -

Baby Powder, Craft Glue and Acrylic Paste.

The recipe I used can be found on the internet and  is

1/4 cup Baby Powder

1 tablespoon Glue

1 tablespoon Acrylic paint

 

 

 

Mix together in a small container till you get a smooth paste.

You may need to add a little water.

You could also use coloured Acrylic Paint which I added to the white.
Let your imagination take over.

You will need a stencil to place on your card stock then start
applying your paste. I used an old credit card filling in the open spaces.

 

When you are happy with the result carefully remove the stencil and give it a good wash.

It shouldn't take very long for your work  to dry.
