Sweet Stamps- Cracked Glass

There is a new monthly challenge at Sweet Stamps Challenge in addition to our weekly challenges. We are focusing on Techniques each 15th of each month- and our 12/15-1/14 technique challenge is to make a card.using the Cracked Glass technique.

 I needed a Non-Christmas card, so I went with a floral image. I sponged Shades dye ink onto the card stock, stamped the image with Memento Black Tuxedo ink. Next, I applied UTEE and heated it- put the panel in the freezer for ~ 20 minutes, then when I removed it from the freezer, bended it and it cracked. I rubbed Brownie Shades Ink over the cracked areas to highlight them a bit.
  I added stitching around the outer edge. I also added Candi brads painted with Creative Inspirations paint.  To finish off the card, I had to try an Tiny Tiny bow like my Kendra always does on her cards.....  : )

Here are the Sweet Stamps products I used on my card:
