Connie-Life's Simple Treasures


This lovely rendition of Sweet Pea plate #5 is just smoke and mirrors. You get the impression that it is layered with another layer on top, but it is all one whole piece of cardstock, nothing but optical illusions.

Supplies:
Sweet Pea Plate #5
Inks: Stamp It dye "New Burgundy" by Ranger & dye ink "Gardenia" by Ranger
Clear glitter pen "Stardust" by Sakura
Post It notes
Ruler
Sponge
Dye marker "Burgundy" by Stampin' Up!
cardstock (unknown)

Directions:
Cut & score dark purple cardstock into A2 card size, cut light purple cardstock slightly smaller.
Stamp focal image in center of light purple cardstock, stamp another on scrap post it note & cut out for mask. Mask focal image. Using post it notes, mask cardstock into 4 areas. Remove one note at a time and stamp images & sponge around edges. Remove another note and repeat. Repeat until all 4 areas are done. Using ruler draw a line with markers across and down in center of panel to separate areas. Remove mask from focal image and go over glass with clear glitter pen. Adhere this panel onto card base.

This is a fun technique and is easy to get good results with little effort.
