Texture Paste and silver shine

Paper Artsy want to see Texture paste, preferably used without stencils... Hmmm!

I have used stamps with mine, from the PA ESN10 plate, corrugated cardboard (lower left) and a woodgrain embossing folder (Tim Holtz, lower right). I then painted with Frescos and tried to highlight the texture with silver foil. I found it near to impossible to apply the glue with a sponge without getting the recesses as well so I used my fingers for slightly better control. To get rid of the remaining stickiness I used micas powders for more silver!

I took several pictures at different angles to try and show the shine :



The flower stamp (PA Hot Pick 1203) has been inked with Gelatos and the impression is a bit pale although I added some pencil to darken it a bit. Artful Blooms (PA ELB03) has been inked in an ombre fashion with dye inks.
Hope you have a happy Easter,
