First try using Metallic Rub-On Paste


My card is inspired by this StampTV technique video, by Gina K.. I didn't have a Sakura Stardust Pen, so I thought I might use my Metallic Rub-On paste. I watched this How to Use it! video on StampTV. I applied Colonial first, but it needed a little more, or so I thought. I added Deep Gold paste, and I think I used a little too much. I haven't felt the creative bug in a week, so I'm going with it, and posting it!! Thanks for checking it out!

Supplies
card stock: Pure Luxury Card Stock in gold, rocket red, white (GKD)
dp: none
ink: real red (SU)
stamp sets: holiday greetings, Stamp TV Kit (GKD)
other: metallic rub-on pastes, holiday cheer ribbon assortment (GKD), Cuttlebug folder textile, Cbug

Hi Lori! :) This is a neat technique! I love that little circular sentiment stamp and your rustic background is elegant =) I've GOT to get over to stamp TV soon... there's so much I've missed out on lately! LOL Have a wonderful weekend! x

WOW, Lori, I love this effect. I have read about it and admired some projects, but never tried it myself. Guess I'll have to add another 'must have" to the list ;D. Gorgeous card!!! Hugs and blessings, Sabrina

wow Lori, so that's how you did this...havent purchased any of this paste... is it messy? and does it come off on your hands from the card even after the card is done? I love the look you have here...just not sure about the paste ...hugs :)
