Damn it, stupid paste...

Simon Says Monday has a challenge that ends tomorrow "Don't cut, just paste!", and I've been fighting with embossing paste all day, trying to come up with something that isn't a smudged mess! All around my desk are half-abandoned attempts, smudges of paste, and stencilled paste that is still drying...

Anyway, the only card that actually got finished is this one:

I used clear embossing paste on Kraft card, with a butterfly stencil. Once the paste was dry I coloured the paste with distress inks, and then sponged grey around the edges of the image.
