Textured Card using Sunshine Wishes #stampinup

Hi Everyone

Thanks for stopping by. Today I am playing along the Global Design Project #GDP088  and we are CASING Shawn De Oliveira

   

Shawn does CAS designs so well, which I really admire as I find it a challenge, I just want to use everything! I guess its balancing the different elements and knowing when to stop. I added the 2nd image from Shawn as the embossing paste really inspired me for my challenge entry below:

Card base 10.5cm x 14.8cm

Island Indigo Layer 9.5cm x 13.8cm

I used Versamark on the Hexagons Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

Press down with my hands only and embossed using Gold  Stampin' Emboss Powder

Applied the embossing paste, let dry before sponging Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry with Sponge Daubers

Stacked 'congrats' die cut from Sunshine Wishes Thinlits Dies and apply Fine Tip Glue to get the smooth & shiny texture

Use Tear & Tape to help shape and hold the Linen Thread

Die cut the butterfly doodle in white and smokey slate, stacked to create a flower

Add a tiny Gold Glimmer Paper dot in the centre, I used the 1/8" Circle Punch

This card is overloaded with different textures and techniques but I'm really pleased with the end result. An embossing paste will be available from Stampin' Up! from June 1st but for this card I made my own and what a mess it was. I did too much, I was unsure of the consistency and couldn't really save for future use so I will be buying the Stampin' Up! embossing paste on our next order.
