BRUSHOS CRYSTAL POWDER BACKGROUND

Below is a photo of my Brusho backgrounds used for a card and two ATCs.  I also used a ginkgo designed stencil from Ryn Designs.  If I could redo the whole process, I would have used glossy cardstock.  After I made my background, I decided to emboss the ginkgo design from the stencil, but with the thinner matte cardstock it didn't work as I expected.  I put the stencil back over the background and went around the design with a black pen.

For the card, the ginkgo leaves are real that were dried.  Because they are very fragile I applied Diamond Glaze to the back to give them more substance and to help avoid the leaves from splitting.

I love to experiment and this was my first completed Brusho project.  More to come!
