Paste-fully Creative - CTMH Technique Blog Hop

Welcome to the CTMH Technique Blog Hop
The theme for the October CTMH Technique Blog Hop is "Paste-fully Creative".  This blog will demonstrate artwork using new CTMH products including  Texture pastes; Opaque paste (Z4245) & Texture paste (Z4246), Palette Knives (Z4247), and Stencil Sheets (Z4244).  You can get 10% discount with the bundle.   I'm excited to see the creative use of texture pastes on this hop.  

If you are coming from Michelle Loncar, you are on the right track.  In case you get lost, you can get a complete list of participants at the bottom of  Melissa Robinson's blog. This month we have 16 Close to My Heart Consultants sharing their creations using the "Paste-fully Creative" theme. To enjoy this hop is quite simple to do - just click on the link at the bottom of the post on each blog to move to the next one. Here we go!  
I tried to create a stamped image in the paste and learned the paste needs to dry a bit or you only get wispy peaks.  I did add some Glacier ink - with a watercolor brush.  The images are from the October Stamp of the Month.  The gingham ribbon is from

  4. Did you do anything different to your stamp, or did the short drying do the trick on its own?

    1. Tamara Sandwisch - just wait a bit so it starts to dry. I'm still experimenting. Did nothing to the stamp.
