It's Saturday and that's Just Us Girls Challenge Day
I had a fun and messy afternoon after seeing a
'new to me' technique on YouTube.
It's Hot Glue Embossing and thought it would be
something different for our Word Week
hosted by Carol Mc choosing 'Sparkle'
and a closer look at the 'sparkle'
It does look just like a big mess that went wrong but -
I made quite a few. Some turned out,
others hmm! Just had to pick which one I liked
and go from there.
This was soooooooooo hard to photograph
to show the 'sparkle' (I tried)
I think the sparkly embossing powder
may have been a little too fine.
Background is smooched Magical's.
Dribbled hot glue and thought I would try and add foil
which worked out nicely then I smothered it with
very fine sparkly embossing powder.
Added a small frame behind it with the same paper
as my metallic base only a lighter weight.
After much searching I finally found a sentiment
that fitted the challenge perfectly -
Tim's Small Talk.
Decided to show another since I had several
sitting on my desk.
This is a little different - not sparkly as such
It was heat embossed in copper and added
Stampendous embossing enamel which highlighted
the sheen from the Magical's background.
Distressed the edges, added a sentiment,
framed in metallic paper and finished with
the bright card base.
What a fabulous challenge. Hope to see
lots of sparkle in all forms in the Gallery.
Thanks for visiting
