Stamp Connection #44

Hi Everyone,

Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Tanja from Little Art Cottage and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 2nd Sunday of the month and this is our ninth transatlantic get-together!

This time we both agreed on the requirements:
Black Ice Technique and Christmas

This technique is amazing - you should look at THIS tutorial. It is quite easy to do. You basically Stamp on mirror paper and then go over it with Versamark and add clear embossing powder.

I used a combination of products - the background snowflakes are by Hero Arts, The die cut snowflakes are by Memory Box and the sentiment if from Inkystamps.

Here is a detail photo:

Since I had made a big mirror paper panel I got a second card out of it:

Did the same, but also dry embossed the blue card stock (Tim Holtz) after I sprayed the embossing folder with Firework spray. It adds a nice shimmer. The die cut sentiment is by CUTplorations.

This technique is perfect for holiday or winter cards. I need to give it a try with different colored mirror paper...

I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting!
And don't forget to check out  Tanja's artwork!

Happy Black Icing!
