A funny thing happened on the way to making a card - while digging in my stash, I came upon a piece of Yupo paper with dots of pearly alcohol inks. First, I noticed that the colors fit in the Altenew February 2022 Inspiration Challenge
Then I reimagined it as a pretty cloisonné flower for the February CAS Mix Up Challenge!
Our host, Susan, has shared a few techniques for creating cloisonné on paper. I took my own path and just hope they will be okay with it...
I just love the shiny, pearly, 'enameled' look of it!
Mixed Media: Stamping, heat embossing in gold, and alcohol inks
I found this example of cloisonne on the interweb...
Okay, off I go to deliver this card to the appropriate galleries... hope you are having a great week!
