Hello Stampers~
It's Impression Obsession week over at Stampers Dream, and the design team will be sharing samples with you all week. Today I'm using the gorgeous Rowboat image. I went with an Americana look for my card, using vintage trims, buttons, and sponging.
I colored the image in with Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol, and topped it off with the "cracked glass" technique. I just love how it looks with this image! To get the cracked glass effect, you'll need some Amazing Glaze thick embossing enamel, a VersaMark pad, a heat tool, and your freezer. Begin by coating the already colored image with VersaMark ink, and pouring on a layer of embossing enamel. Heat with your heat tool, and let cool. Repeat two more times, and pop it in the freezer for a couple of minutes. Remove your image from the freezer and bend it back and forth to crack the enamel. You can do this as much or as little as you desire. As you can see, I went a little crazy with mine! :) I also sponged on some Antique Linen distress ink to give it a more aged effect.
