After the last post I did that came from This is Colossal I decided to do a search for other glass articles. I found some good stuff. There’s one artist that I’ve written about already, but the rest are new to me and maybe new to you too. First there’s Eric Franklin’s neon skeleton, which isn’t really neon. Then there’s the molten glass in what thing…and the shattered glass sculptures made by Daniel Arsham. Great glass.

Create Stunning Cards with Solar Paste
Solar Paste created by Simon Hurly for Ranger Ink is a paste that looks very unassuming at first. It’s an almost white, light color with a creamy consistency that’s subtle on white cardstock but it really comes alive when applied to dark cardstocks. It comes in 6 different colors that each have a cool metallic shift.
Kristina decided to try it out and created three cards with different techniques with some amazing results. For one card she used the Solar Paste with a stencil, for another she created her own simple background with different colors of the paste and lastly she designed some flowers and leaves, all on dark black cardstock. She mounted the panels on white bases and added white heat embossed sentiments to complete each card idea. She’s sharing a video tutorial on making these cards with some tips for using the Solar Paste.
