Snake Skin and a Butterfly

I bet I've got your attention now :-) with this odd combination...

Today I am going to share my samples from my "Try This Technique Sunday" class last week.

The Technique is called Snake Skin and is so very easy and fun and makes great backgrounds. All you need is some cardstock, sponge and inks, VersaMark ink over it, clear Embossing Powder, Bonefolder to draw lines with through the embossing powder prior to melting, and the good ole heat tool...

And then you can come up with something like this:
