Tuesday T&T Layered and Foiled By The Sea! I chose Grace for today's tutorial. I used a couple of different techniques. The first was using a heat and stick embossing powder to attach some mica flakes and the second is foiling Graces shell. Below is how I created the card itself. Images First: I built the card from the back to the front so I inked up Clouds with Memento Summer sky and stamped on Neenah Solar White cardstock, and then I inked Rolling Waves with Fluid Chalk Alabaster on blue cardstock, then I used a caramel colored piece of Bazzill Dotted Swiss and stamped it with VersaMark and Dots, applied heat and bond embossing powder, heated until clear, applied Mica Flakes Gold Dust and then heated again to seal it. Stamped Grace (from my clear set) twice on white cardstock with Memento Toffee Crunch. Painted her with twinks. Applied Jones Toned think layer to the shell. Let dry for an hour and applied the Pearl foil. BTW - if you buy any of this, you don't need a lot. The piece you see there is about 8 years old and still has lots more to use. One copy of Grace will be used to layer (of course)....
