I'm popping in for a quickie post & to show you how I used one of the brayered archival backgrounds that I shared in the previous post...
I used the never enough hearts stencil & stamped thru the stencil with the text stamp, using jet black archival ink & dried it...
the next step was to replace the stencil & spread translucent embossing paste thru the stencil...
while the paste was wet, I sprinkle the paste with frosted crystal embossing powder & heated it to emboss the powder & heat dry the paste...
after the paste was dry & the powder was melted, I traced around it with the black stabilo pencil...then smeared it with my finger, to create shading...
next, I used the checkmate stencil over the page, using tree branch archival with the mini blending tool...
then stamped a few rows of the ornate dots background stamp to create borders at the top & bottom of the page...
this photo shows how cool the frosted crystal embossing powder looks melted, over translucent embossing paste...
there's great texture & dimension...
my FAVORITE text looks great trapped under the 2 layers...
it's a match made in heaven!
Houston...we have a problem!
this is where I got carried away & used some new products, so I can only show a peek here...

A-mazing!!! LOVE the way the frosted embossing powder has combined with your wonderful paste for a really soft finish. Looking forward to the reveal so we can all see the finished piece. Have you tried using either a Black Soot, Walnut Stain or Pumice Stone Distress Marker around the edges of your shapes and lightening the edges with a waterbrush? SO good for making things pop and keeping your digits clean! Jenny x
This is fabulous! I love your smudging technique. It made the perfect shadow.
Oh, glitter without the fallout, how fabulous is that! The heart is gorgeous and so is the wonderful smudging. Anne x

Very cool technique with the translucent embossing paste and the frosted crystal embossing powered. Love the look with the stabilo pencil too. Can't wait to see your new releases.
