A big congrats to GabrielaD for being randomly selected as this week's Make-It Monday winner! Be sure to email customer service with your shipping information and free stamp set selection!

Used to use this method for other things. Thanks for reminding me that it can be used with cards. 🙂
Awesome card! I’ve used dry brushing in the past, but it’s been a long while. I’m pretty sure my paints are dried up so what a great excuse to go buy more!!
Great card & video! MIM is a great way to start the week- thank you. Loved that Lisa showed additional projects with this technique, and would love to see photos of them in the post as well so we can have a closer look. ;P
Thank you for the tutorial, Lisa! Such a neat, dimensional card. 😉
Very pretty effect, thank you :o)
This is really neat, Lisa! I thought the orange diamonds were stamped when I first saw the card. Very cool!

Very cool, thanks Lisa! I’ve never tried this technique and I’m looking forward to trying it!
Generally I do not post on blogs, but I would like to say that this post really forced me to do so, Excellent post!
