Did you know household products can also double up as great crafting mediums? Well today I thought I would share a technique using Spray Ironing Starch to create a faux metal background effect as can be seen in the card below.
Used: "Sparklers" 4040K & "Flourish Thank You" 4175F
I love it when something from home can be used in crafting, do you have any tips on household products you could share, do let me know and I might give them a try?
don't forget I have a glittery photo tutorial for you tomorrow.

What an awesome idea Cathy. I don't have mica powder but might try this with PearlEx powders. It really gives an amazing metal look
Intriguing technique & I love the way you angled the sparklers stamp the opposite to the wonky square. The colour mix is terrific with the pewter & I like your way of overcoming the line syndrome using ribbon - the colour works beatifully with the micas.

Oh no....I have a feeling I might be using my household cleaning products BEFORE I start my chores!! Dazzling technique Cathy!
Great video again Cathy, thanks so much :)
This is a gorgeous card Cathy! I've never seen this technique and can't wait to give it a try!
