Technique: Variation on:  Pouncing Tutorial Feb/March 2008 Subscriber Pages

• Mix any two colors of pigment or mica based powders with Acrylic Glazing Liquid (Satin) – I used Lindy’s Magicals
• Dip your fingers in first color of paint and apply to dark card stock. Repeat second color
• Cut two thin strips of black card stock and ink with silver pigment ink
• Using MISTI, stamp Lollipop Flowers onto black card stock and clear heat emboss
• Stamp “Sister” sentiment from “How Blessed Am I”, with silver pigment and clear emboss
• Edge both focal pieces with silver pigment ink to frame
• Apply Nuvo Ivory Seashell Pearl drops to flower centers
• Finish by dabbing silver pigment over image to give “painterly” look
