Hi everyone,
This is a card made using my favourite Tim Holtz stamp.
I painted the background of the shaped panel with black acrylic paint and then stamped the bird image and embossed it with cosmic shimmer - Denim lilac aurora.
Then I painted over it with silver acrylic paint and wiped it off after a couple of minutes.
The swirls in the corner are embossed with the same embossing powder as the bird.
I cuttlebugged the flowers, painted them black and embossed as before.
I am entering this card into
Thanks for looking
