Creative Artiste is a mixed media challenge so I thought it'd be a good time to step away from the cards and make something different. So I made a 'thing'!
My 'thing' is supposed to go near a window to catch the light, but it was very difficult to photograph.
It is made from three layers of glass slides (Ranger Memory Glass - these have been in my stash for many years). I used an Alte New layering stamp, stamping and embossing one layer in black on the top slide, and another layer in clear ink and pink mica powders. I added more colour with alcohol ink. I smeared glitter glue over the bottom glass slide, which added sparkle but also helped hold it together. Finally, I added the sentiment and wrapped the slide edges with silver tape.
Thank you to Andree for her kind encouragement and thanks for having me at Creative Artiste.
I'd like to enter:

A gorgeous sparkly creation Marina! The blends of mica, alcohol ink and glitter glue look amazing all layered up. The wonderful sentiment should be every artist's mantra.
