This month our blog hop is suppose to feature something retiring, something from the summer mini, or a sneak peek. Since I don't have anything from the latter two, I'm going to share something that is retiring.
I did this card at one of my technique classes. It's called the shattered glass technique. I cased the idea from Dawn Griffith's blog. Sorry for the glare on the picture.
1. I put strips of masking tape on a piece of glossy cardstock (hence the glare). You can choose the way you put the tape on. I did it criss cross.
2. Using Green Galore and Pink Passion, I daubered (is that a word?) color patches on the cardstock.
3. I used the Embrace Life stamp set and randomly stamped images on it with Black Stazon.
4. Pull off the tape and you should have white portions not stamped on.
5. I then adhere the glossy onto a Green Galore piece and then adhere it to my card base (5 1/2 x 4 1/4 - Pink Passion).
6. For the flower, I used regular white cardstock and used the daubers again to put color on the flower.
7. I then cut the flower out and put in a clear rhinestone brad and attached the flower to the card.
I hope you enjoyed today's project. For more fun stuff, continue to the next stop of the blog hop by visiting Diana Clark-Sutton's blog.
