Long time no post. One day I might get good at this but for now hope you are all still watching.
I ran a techniques class last weekend and we created some gorgeous cards using a smashing acetate technique. This is not the card we made (that might wait until another day) however this piece was sitting on my desk after I designed my card and I saw the challenge sketch for Create with Connie and Mary here. I came up with this as my take on the sketch. It didn't quite photograph as pretty as it is in real life - the lighting washed the depth of the colour out. However I did want to post my entry. Gotta be in to win right!
I really like the pastel like effect I got. I mounted the whisper white onto the new smoky slate and finished with a little smoky slate chevron ribbon and a little bling.
