Glimmer Mist & Masking in Blue

My friend Jan kindly sent me a Heidi Swapp mask as a little extra treat along with a card she had made for me. I had some fun making a simple card by sticking the mask down onto some pale blue pearlescent card and spritzing it with darker blue glimmer mists. I cut the result out and mounted it onto some deep blue card and then onto a card made from the same pale blue pearlescent card. Added some gems and ribbon for a quick, but I think rather effective card and it's definately "Blue" so it works for the challenge this week on My Time To Craft.

  1. I like that card Phree. I love the name of your blog too by the way!

    Thanks so much for the You Tube link, that video and the other one are going to be so useful for me to be able to do better colouring. The ironic thing is I have a set of watercolour pencils, though not many, that I use now and I didn't realise the Guar Gum I also have could be used with them a bit like Sansodor/Gamsol. It was there all the time.
    Ah well, I hope I don't regret this but I think it is a new era for me.
