Hi everyone, I'm using up some scraps of card left from smooshing inka gold paste and water on a craft mat.
Here's a closer look at the shimmer.
The die is one I bought recently although it was released in 2014.
(I do wish dies weren't retired as I'm usually slow to find them lol!)
I'm linking up to these challenges:
I've used the diagonal diecut, layers and smooshing as my free choice.
My sentiment stamp is a favourite from Paper Smooches - Sentiment Sampler.
There is no date on the set but sadly I think the company went out of business in 2020.
(I hope using gold is ok too)

What a wonderful stylised tree die Cathy and the leftover piece of an Inca Gold background looks fabulous. x
ReplyDeleteLove this CAS design, and that die is a great purchase! Your gold shimmer makes this such an elegant card! Thanks for joining us at Color Hues!
ReplyDeleteThe shine is awesome and I like that tree die so much. My inka gold all dried up. I can use it if I scrap some out and mix with water. Scrapping it out is the hard part!
