Something Different

Hello to all, todays blog is something different from me, its a tag which I don't really do so thought I would give it ago for some challenges coming up and they were anything but a card, I used this lovely winter stamp for the festive time of the year.


I stamped the image with aVersamark ink pad then mixed ultra thick embossing powder with glitter and embossed it, I then distressed all over it then wiped it off and revealed this lovely image. I have to admit I don't use this technique much but it really does work.

Ingredients 
  • Centura pearl card stock
  • Cricut to cut out the tag 
  • Winter scene stamp and sentiment 
  • Stormy sky distress ink 
  • Ultra thick embossing powder
  • Glitter, Brads, Flowers and Lace
