Muse #82


IMG_6159


Muse


Wow I haven't played Muse in quite some time, but the wheels started turning as soon as I saw Bobby's stunning card for her Guest Design! I have been playing quite a bit lately with embossing paste and I finally got some white that I used  for the challenge! I have only used translucent in the past. Once again I coloured my embossing paste with Distress Inks. I am no expert with embossing paste, just simply a student. I learn each time a open the jar. I remember things from past experiences and make mental notes with the new use.

I am so in love with the texture of embossing paste. Enough that I am getting over the mess! That is big for me!

This is a good photos to show the texture and dimension of the card.

I am also submitting this to the Simon Says Anything Goes challenge and to Keep it Simple challenge #47 ombre. Thanks Amy T for directing me to this challenge!

    Your post made me smile as I have avoided the EP because I think the mess would freak me out! Although I love seeing what others have created with it and your card today is just gorgeous, the texture and dimension is just perfect. Sorry I haven't been to see you for a while and I hope you are well x

    So stunning, Tracey ... your embossing almost glows! Haven't dipped into the embossing paste trend yet ... tried some plasterboard paste, but the mess was ... well, messy! Your card is inspirational! Anita :)

    Stunning card, Tracey - and cheering how wonderfully skillful you are with embossing paste. I'm excited to welcome some into my collection. I found a new product distributor - in Edmonton!! - and I'm aiming to visit her on the weekend. EP is on the list. Your card is a delightful take on Bobby's!
