Engraved Enamel at PaperArtsy

Hello all!  Just a quick sneak peek from me here today to tempt you over to the PaperArtsy blog where I've been playing with Seth Apter's Baked Texture embossing powders for this fortnight's theme.


I couldn't resist experimenting with my Eclectica EAB quote stamps to see whether I could get an engraved enamel effect, stamping into the powders.  Do hop over to PaperArtsy to see the results.  I'm rather pleased with them, though I do say so myself!

 It's nice to be back by the river Avon in Stratford as I am for a few weeks, but the theatre working day doesn't leave much time to enjoy it, sadly, and I'm definitely missing my craft table.  Ah well... soon, soon!!  Hope you're all enjoying a lovely August.

You will have to experiment and try things out for yourself and you will not be sure of what you are doing. That's all right, you are feeling your way into the thing.

    These have turned out fabulous Alison, as I mentioned over on the PA blog I was talking about this very process and the wonders of rubber stamping into UTEE only yesterday to a friend. You will find so many uses for those plaques, you have a very steady hand as your impressions are word perfect.
    Creative hugs & Wishes Tracey xx
