A Different Kind of Coloring

At last weekend's crafty retreat, I did a lot of Copic coloring. I don't usually color that many cards, but then I rarely make that many cards in one sitting.

I took a break and instead of Copic coloring, I colored some embossing paste and made this:


I taped a new-to-me stencil to a card front, then used Distress ink in three different colors to color some embossing paste. I kinda like how it turned out.  After it dried, all I added were the sentiment and a black enamel dot.

I still have a couple more cards from last weekend to share.  As soon as I unpack, I may even make some more. :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Some of the stuff I used: The Alley Way Stamps: More Than Words, Color Box Starburst stencil, Distress inks (Cracked Pistachio, peacock Feathers, Chipped Sapphire), embossing paste.

    I kinda like how it turned out, too. ;) Shaded embossing paste is still on my to-try list, if only life would slow down a bit. Great CAS card with beautiful shading and texture!

    I finally cottoned on that this way is easier than trying to mix colour INTO the paste...that just results in gooey sadness. Love that starburst!
