click to see detailsIt all began with rubber stamping...and ten years later and I still love stamping! I've gotten away from making greeting cards over the years as I moved into paintings, mixed media collage and assemblage. But I always come back to my first love, rubber stamping. To send a hand made greeting card makes the message extra special.
I love layers in my cards. This one begins with the card itself, which I sponged on ink and then stamped with Versamark and added mica powder. I then added a layer of gold Hanko paper. I distressed the edges of my next layer, the purple. The top layer I embossed with gold embossing powder. The stamped grape image I painted with watered down mica paint.

Lovely!
I was at that party and each time I see another piece of art from you I smile! What is mica paper?
mica paint is a watercolor paint with mica powder in it so it give off a nice subtle shine.
