The pièce de résistance on this Mother's Day card is the Silver Foil panel, finished with the Black Ice Technique. I love this look; it reminds me of viewing the world through icy or condensation-streaked windows. Here's how this was created:
- Cut Silver Foil Sheet at 8 cm x 8 cm (3" x 3") and temporarily adhere to a piece of Grid Paper or scrap paper.
- Drag the flat edge of the Basic Black Archival Stampin' Pad, leaving a streak of ink like wood-grain, down the Silver Foil. Rotate and drag from the opposite edge too.
- Stamp the gorgeous bunch of flowers in the top right and words across the bottom of the Silver Foil in Basic Black Archival ink.
- Dry the ink using a Heat Tool.
- Lightly drag the flat edge of the VersaMark Ink Pad down the Silver Foil. Remove Silver Foil from Grid Paper, add Clear Stampin' Emboss Powder and heat set.
- Adhere Silver Foil to Basic Black card stock cut at 8 cm x 8 cm (3-3/8" x 3-3/8").
The gorgeous black and white designs from the Petal Passion Suite are a perfect compliment for this technique. Whilst the individual products from the Petal Palette stamp set and Petals & More Thinlits Dies Bundle will be in the soon-to-be-released 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue, the discounted bundle plus the coordinating Petal Passion Designer Series Paper and Petal Passion Embellishments will be retiring on 31 May. Get them before they're gone forever!
