A beautiful themed collection of 3 Colour Blend Embossing Powders.
This set consists of the following colours: Chinese Lantern, Pomegranate & Silk Brocade.
Inspired by Gwen Lafleur and her travels around the world,
the colors in the Silk Road Trio echo her train voyage along that storied
route, starting in China. Brightly colored paper lanterns festoon streets and
doorways everywhere you look. The Chinese Lantern embossing powder reflects the
reds and oranges most commonly seen and the semi-transparent finish is a nod to
the translucency of a lighted lantern.
Continuing on the journey, we come to the "Stans"
- a string of beautiful and exotic countries that comprise the bulk of the
length of the Silk Road. In Tajikstan, pomegranate season brings baskets
of this delicious fruit piled high in stalls all throughout the local markets.
The ripe skin of the fruit is captured beautifully in the Pomegranate embossing
powder; deep reds are flecked with honey and gold and it comes out beautifully
opaque in your work.
Finally, this Trio wouldn't be complete without its
namesake, Silk Brocade. This glossy, semi-transparent powder shimmers with a
metallic undertone and the mulberry color reflects the blossoms of the tree that's
home to the precious silk worm that was (and still is,) at the heart of the
silk trade.
