Who Can Resist RESIST?

I keep saying that ("Who can resist resist?") and am powerless to stop myself because it's so darned true!

I had a lot of fun with this card – unfortunately, the picture doesn't do it justice. All the more reason to try this one at home so you can see for yourself! After I did this technique once, I was totally hooked!!!

1. Stamp Harvest Moon with embosSing ink on watercolor paper and heat emboss with Seafoam White powder.
2. Apply Mustard Seed and Dried Marigold inks to moon with ink applicators – it's okay to color outside the lines. ;~D
3. Apply Weathered Wood ink to center of card, working out. Apply Chipped Sapphire ink to edges, working in. Repeat with Concord Grape.
4. Saturate panel with Perfect Pearls solution by spritzing. (Fill Ranger Mister up to the "R" in "Mister" on the side of the bottle and then add Perfectly Pearl Perfect Pearls – I used about 1/8 teaspoon.)
5. Don't panic at how dreadful it looks (and it will look scary). When this baby dries, you're going to be very happy!
6. Once your very cool, shimmery panel is dry, stamp crow with Soot ink.
7. Cut panel to your preferred size and mount on a mat of Soiree Shimmer Paper (silver). 
8. Adhere matted panel to Soiree Shimmer card (Onyx).
9. Add diamond jewel stickers.   

Piece of cake! (Or should I say candy, given the season?)

TFL and have a great weekend!
