Ummm--Black and White and a Pop of Color?

Well, I ALMOST follow the challenge this week.  Silver is a neutral, after all.  This week, I have a tutorial featured on the Paper Craft Planet site.  My subject is foil with the Double Glitter Technique.  Pam was generous enough to let me count this as my blog post this week.

Two unusual things have come together this week:  I took WAY TOO MANY step out pictures and I am featured on Paper Craft Planet this week.  So, since I REALLY want you to visit my blog there, I am going to try something new.  I am going to give you a photo posting this week.



1) Gather materials




2) Soap the back of the stencil




3) See the soap crumblies?




4) Remove them with a stencil brush




5) Put Double Sided Adhesive Paper on Soaped side of stencil



6) Foil has dull and shiny side

7) Place dull side down on adhesive

8) Rub on with finger

9) Run around edges with stylus

10) Peel off foil

11) Foil backing is clear

12) Pour on coordinating glitter

13) Rub in glitter--I like Art Glitter Microfine

14) Brush off excess glitter



15) Carefully remove paper from stencil



16) Pour on Crystal Art Glitter

17) Finished Background

18) Using first few steps, put butterfly on adhesive

19) This time, use lots of colors

20) It only takes color where there is none



21) So you can layer colors



22) Lots of colors



23) Add Black Fun Flock instead of glitter





24) Brush off excess--WELL!




25)  Remove from backing.  Here is where you add Crystal Glitter

Well, there it is--my never to be repeated photo tutorial.  For the real deal, you will have to go here.

Meanwhile, I hope you have been inspired.  Check out the rest of the team blogs and you will be.  Then make something Black and White with a Pop of Color (or something close to it...), post and link it to the Dream It Up Blog or email it to Lynell for your chance to win!
