FAUX TEXTURED METALIC TECHNIQUE



This technique is inspired by Jennifer McGuire. Here is the link to her tutorial:




FAUX METAL TECHNIQUE
1 - Tape your card base or a piece of card stock onto a mat or paper
2 - Apply ink with an applicator (You can use one or as many colors as you wish)

3 - Select the color of Perfect Pearls you wish to use. Apply on with brush. (A little goes a long way.)
4. Wipe the area with a cloth either before or after removing tape.
5. To set Perfect Pearls – spritz water in air and wave card through the area you spritzed.

6. Place card base or card piece into embossing folder and run through the embossing machine. 7. If using a card piece, adhere card piece to card base and embellish as desired.
