Crackd Glass Purple Flower ..JUGS50

What a wonderful idea....a challenge that encompasses a technique.  I want to play!!! So, after reading directions that explained how to create the cracked glass, it was time to choose a perfect stamp.  The floral posy from JustRite's Plant a Little Love set.  I wondered how it would crack if I used glitter to color the stamped image, so glitter was used to color the flower.  Crack, crack and the flower was ready to use to create a card.  Using a Spellbinders circle I cut out the flower and also cut out a circle on the card front.  The card cover was covered with a piece of purplish specialty paper, with a bit larger circle cutout.  A few Pima flowers, Swarvoski crystals were used to accent the card.  A purple organza ribbon and bow added the final flourish to my first ever cracked glass card.  What I discovered is I like this technique and will certainly do more cards using it.
