Faux Tiles



Here is a card I made using the Technique Junkie Faux Tile technique.  I wasn't sure how it would look with a face, but I am pleased.  The main image and the greeting are both from CS Designs.  Coloring was done with Copic.  Beside coloring the parts of the face, I took a little Cool Grey and outlined each of the tiles so they would stand out a little better.  The flowers are from my stash in the back of a drawer.  I didn't even realize they were there.  I know I am the only one around who doesn't realize they  have something hidden away in a corner.

  8. The face looks brilliant done in faux tiles and the grey edge has really made the tiles stand out. I'm going to give this technique a try!
