Shimmered Swallowtail

I combined three techniques to create this pretty card.















Heat Embossing
-swipe the card stock with an embossing buddy
-apply a VersaMark pad to the image and stamp on card stock
-cover with Pool Party embossing powder and shake off the excess
-melt the powder stuck to the image with a heat tool

Ink Resist
-colour with markers and sponge daubers


Shimmer Paint
-dab with a tissue to remove ink from embossed areas
-apply Champagne Shimmer Paint with an Aqua Painter over the image
-heat again with a heat tool (Don't worry if it smokes a bit)
