{Faux Silk meets Snow Swirled}

Many thanks to Sue Madex, who was a lovely Australian demonstrator who joined us on the Incentive Trip in August, for the inspiration for this card.  In fact, more than inspiration!  I changed just a few things, so "template" is probably a better description! 

The Faux Silk technique is super easy and one that I used on a scrapbooking layout, Once Upon a Time, a few months back.  The tutorial on this technique is posted there.  The only tricky part is sourcing white tissue paper!

And a few of my ladies had little guilty feelings about crinkling up their stamped tissue, but it really does make the effect work to have wrinkles throughout the images.  Be sure and use a good, non-globby glue stick – the Stampin Up ones are perfect for this. And at $8.95 for two, it's worth getting some that work well.

This is the last few weeks to order the scallop oval punch . . .
