Hello, everyone! A couple of weeks ago I had made a card using this same Darkroom Door Butterflies Stencil. This time I actually let the crackle embossing paste dry naturally. Guess what? It turned out perfectly with the crackles and not the funky bubbles!
I used the stencil as a mask as well, rubbing various Prism Inks over the butterfly to add color and emphasize the crackles.
I sponged the background with Prism Ink then used the PaperArtsy JOFY PS147 Stencil with a damp paper towel to remove some of that ink. I removed the stencil mask and spattered the card front with water. Yum!
I also sponged a few Pronty A5 Pretty and Cool Stars Stencil with more Prism Ink.
Finally I stamped the Katzelkraft Dreamer sentiment using Versafine Onyx Black.
Talk about dreamy!

Hi love the butterfly wondering how you use the crackle embossing powder? I have really only used plain embossing powders with a heat tool and have not really had success with them but love how your butterfly turned out
ReplyDeleteHello! To achieve this effect, apply crackle texture paste through a stencil, remove stencil and sprinkle with embossing powder. Shake off excess. Let it dry naturally, (the powder will stick to the paste). Once the paste is dry, emboss as usual. It's a great effect!
Deletealso, in re-reading Toni's description - she let the crackle paste dry and then rubbed it with Prism inks to color it (no embossing powder involved). That is also a very cool effect. =)
