Mica powdered!!

I wanted to cut a filligree card but my babes wouldnt behave today!! she started to cut then decided not to play...as it was some super smooth card and costly i decided to see what i could do with the salvaged remains!!

although the background looks peachy in this picture it is actually mica powder in red bronze and is very shiny and opulent...


The layer was also covered in mica powder i used a mixture of copper and a  teeny weeny bit of dark bronze and because it was damaged with the cutter not behaving i decided to further distress it by adding tim holtz distress inks in walnut  around the edges.

The embellishment is an epoxy sticker from the La Blanche range i have several packs of these in my stash and they are so lovely that i never want to use them!!(you know what i mean!) finally i upcycled the beads and ribbon

They were originally around my christmas crackers and I knew they would come in handy someday hehe

Thank you for looking
love debby xx
