Playing around with my melt pot


After reading Lisa's blog http://lafemmepapier.blogspot.com/ I decided to have a play with some utee today. I cut some squares out of thick cardboard, inked and stamped on them. I inked them up again using clear ink then put utee on them whilst they were in the melt pot. After the utee had levelled I took them out and put them in the freezer for 10 mins then cracked them..you have to be careful you dont crack them too much or the cardboard splits!!! Ink the cracks up with brown ink. I might add further embellishments to these but I think they look really good so why not have a go..love to see your results
