Hello! I have a bold, textural card to share today using a bunch of products from Spellbinders. The Beautifully Imperfect Collection is great for getting funky, mixed media looks without a lot of effort, and I’ve been really enjoying it. The Crackle Paint 3D Embossing Folder is probably my favorite item from the collection, and I’ve used it a number of times already.

On a piece of Smooth Bristol Cardstock, I smeared on several inks from Catherine Pooler, directly from the pad. I used Aquatini, Lime Rickey, Party Dress, Limoncello, and Grape Crush. Then I ran it through my die cut machine with the Crackle Paint Embossing Folder. After that, I rubbed Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink on top, to blacken the raised areas.
Next, I die cut a few of the elements from the Tangled Threads Die Set using some colored cardstock that coordinated with the ink colors I used. I also added a wax seal, made with the Patterned Perfection Seal and the Must-Have Teal Wax Bead Mix. I wanted the pattern to stand out a bit more, so I rubbed on the Silver Bullion Wax Seal Powder to make it really shine. I made my sentiment with one of the options from the Grungy Background Press Plate Set. Then I inked my card base with Limoncello and Lime Rickey Ink.
It’s a mess, but a beautiful one. I love all the texture and interesting elements. Please be sure to visit Spellbinders to see all of the latest releases. Thanks for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!
Thank you so much for your kind words!
