I started with the Whale stencil. Paste with White Matte Paste. Let dry. Once dry, place stencil over image, stencil light blue and grey pigment ink over image. Remove stencil, cover with clear UTEE (Ultra Thick Embossing Enamel) tap off excess, heat with heat gun. Put Stencil over image and stencil dark blue pigment ink over image. Remove stencil and cover with regular clear embossing powder. Tap off excess and heat.
The speckled look on the whales back looks like the reflection of the ocean.
Now you try it!!
He's magnificent, just as he would be in the wild. And thanks, too, for the encouraging "you are never sure what you're going to get" . . . that's me and faux cloissone!
