This months challenge at Technique Time Tuesday is Faux Cloisonne. If, like me, you've never heard of this technique pop over to the blog and Mynnette has done another great video tutorial for us to follow.
Although this technique really lends itself to leaves and flowers I wanted to try something different so for my card I've started off with an advert on the back of an old craft magazine
I've used the Woodware Huge Sorry stamp and WOW ebony embossing powder and then cut it out. I just love these big stamps as they're especially good for male cards. The backing paper is from my stash and the sentiment is from the same stamp set and embossed with the WOW powder
You can see the sheen of the magazine page in this picture
This is definitely a technique I'll be playing with again and again
