It had to be Poppies

Hi everyone, 
Warm hugs
Thanks so much for popping in today. 

I walked the boys to school today in a snow blizzard….thank goodness it has stopped now.




I have just been in the garden to give the birds some food and fresh water 
This is the front of our house…our little camper van is covered in snow. 



So I decided to have a lovely warm cup of coffee and a play with the new 
Mica Minerals. 

They are fabulous on black card 



Here is a closer look 



Simple stamping in VersaMark ink…the sticky one 





Then gently add the mica minerals.
Remember a dabbing motion and small amounts at a time. 





I added them one colour at a time.



To clean off the bloom (excess powder around the image ) and buff up the mica I always use 
a cotton pad…as it is nice and gentle 





I added some mica mineral splatters, 
Some posca pen 

Wow look at that shine
It really doesn’t show up 

I do hope you will have a play…
Enjoy 

Take care 
Keep safe and warm 

Much love and hugs
