For Jackson and this week's teapot challenge!
The technique can be found on youtube and is by Pat Huntoon of Technique Junkies, called "Gilding Flakes Grout".

Ah...one of the very first "techniques" I learnt long before I found SCS was something like this only not with gilding flakes. I can't even remember what the book used, I know I used Mizuhiki cord because it's what I had. With the "Lego"embossing it makes a great background, and the gumball machine is super-effective.

What a cool looking technique, Joann and the lego blocks were a great idea for a young boy! You were on top on this one with those smileys, too. Thanks so much for playing.
