A little while back Loll made me some stencils, this was one of them.
I used embossing paste on the stencil, and then sprinkled blue brushos over the whole area. I waited for the embossing paste to dry and then brushed off the excess. Any crystals which came in contact with the wet embossing paste activated and those on the dry paper I could tap off.
I love the card but FYI don't go near it with damp fingers those crystals still have a lot of life in them. I'll put the sentiment on when I'm ready to use it, but for now I love the CAS effect.
Nancy (stiz2003) thanks for giving me the nudge to post and not just browse, life gets way to busy some times.

Leave it to Nancy to give you that needed push to upload your art pieces. So glad you did that. We all benefit from reading your description to seeing your work. This is just beautiful. I don't think I have a stencil that would work quite like this but I'm going to make it a point to try this technique. Great work here.

Great technique - using the brushos on the embossing paste. I've done that technique with Perfect Pearls or PearlEx, but never tried it with brushos - will have to do that.
