At AlteredPages we are really excited to partner with #USArtQuest this month.  Today I am using the USArtquest Mica Tiles to stamp the Eiffel Tower to use on my cards from the DIY Card Making Kit.

Embossing Powder
Double side tape
Glue
Dimensional Adhesives




Large Acrylic Block

With Black ink stamp the Eiffel Tower from Paris Muse Stamp on four sheets of mica, once for each card. Heat emboss with embossing powder to set the ink on the mica.


Addition to the kit card - Flowers

Attach the white paper strip and mica with Double sided tape, (put the tape on the mica where it would be hidden by embellishments)  


Adhere sentiment with Dimensional Adhesives and flowers with Glue.

    Very nice. The Mica works great on the cards. Mica goes such long way since you can peel the layers apart. Thanks for sharing.

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
