Mica Spray - You Make me Happy

                                         Mica Spray - You Make Me Happy

Good day, fellow crafters. It's Tamara once again, with a new post where I am going to be showcasing my latest card created using I Brake for Stamps and Blank Page Muse products! 

Incorporating mica sprays with embossed images can create stunning effects. They are a versatile tool that adds a beautiful shimmer and depth to your designs. When applied to embossed images, the sprays highlight the raised areas and enhance the texture, giving your cards a luxurious and dynamic appearance. The result is a captivating blend of color and shine that makes each card unique and eye-catching.

To create this project, you will need the following: 

• Blank Page Muse You Make Me Happy Hummingbird Clouds Flower

• I Brake for Stamps Coral Sunflower (Large)

• Cardstock - white

• Mica Mists - Olive, Violet, Dark Blue, Peach and Fuchsia

• Plastic tarp or splatter box (a MUST)

• Stamping platform

• Watermark ink

• White Embossing powder

• Heat Tool

• Scissors

• Liquid glue

• Paper trimmer

• A2 card base – white (4.25” x 5.5”)

To craft your card, you will need to begin with the focal image and sentiment.

• Place white cardstock into the stamping platform

• Align the stamp, and ink with watermark ink, and stamp the focal image. Repeat to ensure complete coverage

• Align the stamp, and ink with watermark ink, and stamp the sentiment. Repeat to ensure complete coverage.

• Remove the background panel from the stamping platform

• Cover the panel liberally with white embossing powder

• Heat set the powder with a heat tool

• Place the embossed panel on top of a paper towel, a tarp, or in a splatter box
• Using various colors of mica sprays, lightly mist over the design.
• Apply enough spray to cover completely.  The embossing powder acts as a resist so don’t worry about the image
• Allow to dry completely
• Wipe excess from the embossed area which will brighten the image.

The last stage in the creation process is the assembly.  Trim your panel down to  4” x 5.25, which allows for a reveal, and then with liquid glue adhere it to the white A2 card base.  With that, I called the card complete.
