Hello Stampers,
Ohlala so pretty. That would be the All Around Wreath on the Mercury glass, layer on copper foil. To make these cards I combine many techniques. I have the how to video and explain all the technique that I used for the cards in the video.
You can view the video at the bottom of this post or on my YouTube channel.
Measurements
Both cards are the same measurement. I only change the color of the brick.
- Whisper White Thick 11 x 4¼ score at 5½ card base, 3½ x 3½ die cut wreath for layer
- Copper Foil 5½ x 4¼, ¾ x 3½ banner
- Mercury Glass 5½ x 4¼
- Watercolor paper 3½ x 3½ die cut wreath
How to make the brick wall
This is simple. First place the brick mask onto the mercury glass sheet. Using the spatula spread the embossing paste. No need to cover all open area. Let dry and Voila! you have a brick wall.
If you wish to have color brick instead of white just mix a few drop of ink with the paste. I place a chuck of paste, about a tea spoon on the silicone craft sheet and mix the paste and ink. Apply the same way then plain white paste.
Soon you are done applying the paste, rinse the spatula, silicone sheet and mask under warm water. You can also use dish sop to was them. The paste dry fast so rinsing right away will save you lots of time to remove the paste.
All is show in the video.
Here you can see the splatter of the copper. It is heat embossed.
Technique
Here are the technique that I did on these cards.
- Embossing paste with the brick wall mask with color. Above picture it is with Cajun Craze and below is the white.
- Wreath, watercolor wash for the variation of greens.
- Splatter of Versamark and heat emboss with copper embossing powder.
- Mercury Glass on copper foil.
The crackle mercury glass layer on copper give such a unique look. I will be making many more cards using these 2 layer. Picture are no justice for the look of these 2 together.
