Give a Cheer
In my experiments the VersaMark and Stamp-N Stuff embossing powder worked better than either the Stampabilities Embossing Ink pad and/or Ranger Super Fine Detail gold embossing powder. I used Gelly Roll fine markers to color in the stamp. It doesn’t show in the photo but the results are dimensional and high translucent gloss, appearing similar to cloisonné or fine enamel work. I traced the inside of the large Nestie Labels Eight onto a sheet of Terrifically Tacky Tape. I used that to adhere the MS amethyst microbeads. I also used Terrifically Tacky Tape for the MS fire opal microbeads. However, I scanned the Dresden foil ovals, traced the shape I wanted and printed it out to use for a pattern to cut the Terrifically Tacky Tape. I treated the patterned orange cardstock with the Perfect Printing Pouch and Cleaning Cloth before applying the Terrifically Tacky Tape to the orange cardstock and applying the MS fire opal microbeads to the tape. Then I stamped with purple ink and embossed with clear embossing powder. High tack glue is important in adhering the Dresden foil around the curves of the Nestie. I used the Best Glue Ever. The butterfly antenna is made from brass beading wire and with gold seed beads glued on with the Best Glue Ever.
Thanks for spreading positivity!
