Chalks

Another new technique for me is using versamark on a stamp, transfer onto paper then colour in using chalks, the chalk is set by the versamark so doesn't come off. You can then add stamped images to draw out picture. Pleased with my first attempt........

Water stamping

I have been trying out this technique, cover cardstock with distress inks (works better with darker colours), stamp background image but instead of using ink stamp using water, as it dries the water lifts the colour away - I love it

Then using that as your background stamp a foreground as you wish


New Room

I have not been blogging for a while as I have been sorting out my craft room, finally have cupboards instead of everything on the floor - it is still an ongoing project as I have yet to find homes for everything but my OCD is functioning well on order and process!!!

Rainy Sundays

What do you do on a rainy Sunday? - yes, you play. This is my first real go at creating a messy background which is something of a challenge for me as I usually have a neater more calculated approach


I have to say I enjoyed the experience and now just have to work out how to keep the card flat as water certainly makes it have a life of it's own!
