It was Jo's birthday yesterday and this is the card I made her.
This was my first attempt at an image transfer, and after seeing image transfers done using acrylic paint I decided that that was the way to go for me. I took a piece of patterned paper from one of Crafty Individuals paper pads and painted a good layer of a pale yellow acrylic paint over it and then laid my chosen image onto the paint and then waited, with baited breath. Now patience isn't a strong point of mine and I think I tried rubbing the paper away a little too soon in places, but then I do like the soft distressed look it gives the image. I finished the image off with gold oil pastel and a sprinkling of gold UTEE.

I think it's worked brilliantly Deb. fantastic dreamy quality and the gold UTEE just finishes it off (not literally! LOL)
the transfer has a wonderful ethereal effect, and I love it!!
and I guessed it was yours!! lol
It's an amazing transfer Deb really love the overall effect.
Love it..The image and embossing is perfect.
the transfer is fab, very ghostly. the touches of gold are perfect too. gorgeous card Deb. :)
It's really interesting seeing this as I tried the image transfer thingy using Golden gel and it came out all faded and misty like this - so it's nice to see a different approach produces the same ethereal effect.
(Note to self - ANOTHER thing to try).
Lovely piece and I'm sure the recipient will be thrilled.
