Hey There! Today I made a card with some of My Creative Time's latest releases. (Spring Chicken Backgrounds and Hello Spring with egg layering dies). I used Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel (UTEE) on the handle and edge of the basket to make it very shiny.
I cut out two of the baskets at 5" from Doodlecharms (since there are no layers for it), cut off the handle and top and bottom edges.
I took the pieces and pushed them into my Versamark Watermark pad, then dipped them in the UTEE and heated them up with my heat gun. I did this 3 times to get a nice thick, shiny finish.
I also used the Versamark pad with one of MCT's new flower background stamps to stamp the body of the basket.

Doodlecharms Cricut Cartridge

ReplyDeleteSUCH a BEAUTIFUL creation!!! I haven't heard of UTEE and would love to see a video for using it. Your card, again, is truly OUTSTANDING!!! Thanks and Hugs!
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute! I have the Doodlecharms cart, but for some reason, I don't use it very much. This project has given me inspiration to examine it again! TFS!
