Compendium of Curiosities 3 Challenge #30 – Faux Cracked Glass

I seem to have this just under the wire deadline stuff down pretty well. ;-) I finally finished my card for the Faux Cracked Glass challenge over at the Studio L3 blog. You would not believe all the fun projects over there for this challenge! You really should go check it out. The technique is from page 54 of Tim Holtz's book, A Compendium of Curiosities Vol. 3. I made a Father's Day card for my husband (getting down to the wire for that too!)


I cut the bell jar out of clear plastic and used the cracked technique on it. My husband is a big fan of puns so he'll appreciate this card. On the inside the question is, "How did you get to be so wonderful?" I'm all mushy like that. =)

Many thanks to The Funkie Junkie Boutique for sponsoring this challenge. Link up your project in this challenge and you can have a chance to win a great prize from them.

    That should say "Aw, Lisa..." Darn you, autocorrect!! Then again, maybe "awe" is the right word!
