For the mixed media component, I cut a stencil from some plastic packaging I had saved and used it to stencil some drywall compound mixed with Silks Acrylic Glaze directly onto the card base. I wasn't happy with the color, so I rubbed Inka Gold Metallic Rub over the stenciled area after it had dried.
I am entering this card in the Die-Namites Blog April "Egg-Cellent" sketch challenge as my tak on the the sketch:
I turned the Die-Namites Elegant Flake Die into a lace boarder by cutting each "arm" of the snowflake off, colored it with Inka Gold Metallic rub and arranged them into a straight line across the card. I also used the leaves from the Winter Branch Die-Namites Die for the leaves behind the paper roses.
