This is for the TSC0218 challenge in where we were to do the Fzux Silk technique.
I chose the SU! Coast to Coast stamp, colored with Prismacolored pencils and glued the white tissue paper over it. I cut it out with a nestie and mounted onto black cs. The stamp on the background is from Stampabilities. I added the pearls and done.
Feel free to join in this challenge. Let's see what you can do with this technique!!! Just remember to put TSC0218 in your keywords.
What do you think?

I'm first??? OK, I'm first to tell you this is a gorgeous faux silk scene. I've not done this tech since a Christmas card, but you've inspired me to do it again. I love this scene, I love lighthouses. This is perfect against the blue base card. Love it.

Wow Les, this is gawgus Sistah! I tried this die but couldn't get the edges to look clean and neat so I had to go with a square panel. Really enjoyed this challenge, thanks. Beautiful card you've got here.

Lovely - looks like the mist from the sea covering the image - so pretty. This was a tough challenge but it was so fun!
