I hope this post makes sense. I have a terrible cold today...
This matchbook style card was making flowers using packing tape. We stamped the image first with black Stazon and then applied Pearlex powder with a dry watercolour brush to the sticky side of the image. The tape is then attached to white cardstock and cutout. Very shiny and artsy, not so perfect :)
Stamps: Embrace Life, Short & Sweet
Ink: Black Stazon, Basic Black
Paper: Whisper White, Wild Wasabi, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery Print Designer Series
Accessories: Pearlex (from art store), packing tape, Certainly Celery grosgrain ribbon, stapler
This card I saw the basic design somewhere before and I thought the bookmark card idea was brilliant. I also wanted to incorporate in the use of the clear micro beads. I also love the stamp set! The picture just does not do this justice as the shine on the beads does not show well... I will repost when I take another picture...

This card used the brayer to make a lovely spectrum background. I hoped it gave the feeling of looking out the window at a nice bright cheery spring/summer scene. Nice when we are -20s...
