Mother of Pearl Swap

This is a card I did for CC Swaps (Mother of Pearl swap) earlier this year. The background is kaleidacolor Baby Powder brayered, spritzed & dried. Using crumpled cling wrap dab Pearl White Lumieres over the top. Word stamping is done with Silver Pearl embossing powder. Embellishment is Paper Clay pressed into a mould - when dry use pearl Fab-Foils with appropriate glue over the peaks. Silk flower has also been painted with Pearl White Lumieres and using a brad to attach (two sides of the flower have been trimmed flush with the card) & down the side is Magic Mesh.
I have also used fine silver thread wrapped around just below my stamped image.
