Understand Blue: Some Things Never Get Old (VIDEO)

I rustled up an old technique this week - one I did at one of my very first retreats - and one that I discovered by accident while trying to do something completely different. You know - the way all good techniques get invented!

This week on my live we were talking about how crafters forget techniques. They're new, they're fun, and then there's a new, fun one, and another and another, and before you know it - EOINA when you rediscover an oldie but a goodie.

This little trick involves this photo paper, Distress Oxides, white paint, a Magic Mushroom and this stunning embossing folder. When I was done with all the colorful fun, I added a sentiment from this set, and can you see the three little circles of glitter paper?

I used the same technique in fall colors, and cut that panel in half for two cards for a secret upcoming Dare to Get Dirty challenge next month. The sentiment is from this set - free with purchase - and I used this background paper.

The other side had less Crackling Campfire and Vintage Photo, so it was overall lighter.

The paper is from this pad. The sentiment is from the same set as above. (free with purchase)
