Not only does liquid glass let you add some shine and gloss to whatever you put it on, it is also the best adhesive I have ever used. It does dry to a high-gloss finish, so remember that if you don't want it to show on your project.
For my card, I used liquid glass to create the cracked glass technique. A lot of people use clear embossing powder, but I like to cover my image in a few thin layers of liquid glass (letting the layers dry after each application). Then, start bending and almost folding your image so that the liquid glass cracks. I
finished this image off by rubbing a bit of Chocolate ink onto the cracked glass so that it seeped into the cracks. The ink wipes write off the clear face of the clock image. (Let me know if you have any questions, as I do not have a supply list handy at the moment. I did use the CTMH Silhouette paper pack and Make It Count stamp set.)This card is especially meaningful to me right now because this passage was read at my uncle's funeral this weekend. No matter what your faith, these are such true words.

ReplyDeleteOh Haley, I love the cracked glass technique! And it works just beautifully with this image & the theme of your card. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteVery cool technique. It looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThis turned out great. I will have to give this a try. I love how you did the re-inker in the cracks!!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this blog hop - and it was short enough that I hopped through all of them in one sitting! I was working with the pages we made with that clock accent, just this past week. I need to remember to use LG more often!
ReplyDeleteNow isn't that one clever idea! You are sooo smart:-)
