annabelle stamps challenge

Ok.. not too happy.. but i was trying out new techniques i've seen this weekend on youtube.

The oval image is a demask stamp, it was stamped with soot! Yes.. i said soot! What ya do is get some glossy photo paper, a lite candle and go over the flame with the glossy paper and the soot will appear. Do this several times... once you got the desired amount stamp with a stamp.. then spray aerosal hairspray over it so it won't smudge. I had to do it like 3 times. I had cheap hairspray. Then all I did is put crackle accents over it to give it a crackle finish.

Annabelle Stamps Challenge 24:

The bling i used liquid pearls in pewter. Not very good at using it.. but its an attempt.
Not my best card but like i said.. i was testing out new techniques.

Thanks!
