Susanbcards: Lunar Paste and Spellbinders "Plaster" embossing folder

The Spellbinders/Simon Hurley 3D embossing folder called, "Plaster" is such a dramatic look with so much dimension. In addition to plaster, I think it looks like frosting!

To highlight the texture I used Simon Hurley's Lunar Paste. I spread it on some black mixed media paper with a foam blender. I like using the flat foam blender because it puts a nice even coat onto the paper. I used some metallic colors, Refined Copper, Silver Lining, Slippery When Wet (gold), and Weeping Willow (dark brown). Originally, I used Shady but I thought it was too dark so I covered it with Silver Lining.

I ran a Black Archival Ink Pad over the Plaster embossing folder and ran it through my Big Shot. The black doesn't completely cover the recessed areas but just leaves a little bit to accent it.

I didn't want to cover it but it didn't make much sense without an image, so I used the "Mylar Balloons from the same collection as the "Plaster" embossing folder.

I covered another piece of black cardstock with Lunar Paste in Silver Lining and a bit of Breakup Blue mixed in for highlight. I used a piece of silver glitter cardstock I had in my scrap pile to put behind the balloons for the highlight.

Here is another post using pretty much the same products in a different way, you can read my blog here:

That's it for today!
