I painted it with gesso, then hot pink acrylic paint, then ran it through the Cuttlebug with the Swiss Dots embossing folder. I sanded back the tops of the dots to expose the brown chipboard and then coated the whole thing with Dimensional Magic.
A whole day later, it was ready to pop onto a card:
I used a similar treatment for the word 'Invitation' (another new piece from Twiddleybitz) - don't they look juicy?
I used Girl's Paperie patterned paper. This would have to be my favourite range of 2010 - I'd love to hear what your favourite range was.
Come back in a day or two and I'll show you a card I made with one of the little teacups.

ReplyDeleteYou exercised such restraint letting it dry. I love the effect you got from your technique.
I haven't checked out Girl's Paperie.
