Not only is today Wednesday, (and the Wednesday before
July 4th-Holiday!!) but it is also our day for peeking in on craft
desks around the world, thanks to Julia at the Stamping Ground.And on my desk; the same lily images I colored last week, just moved over out of the way. On the pad are the paper weavings I’ve done to go with them. I will say, even if that has been the only technique I embraced from the Online Card Class “Pattern Play”, it has definitely paid for itself! Well, maybe not, as those are new paper packs to the left, that I had to get to, you know, make sure I had palettes I could use to, erm, weave…
All the toppled bottles are the Judikins Mica Gloss, and
yes, this seems to be working, as the mica pigments seem to be easier to mix
up, and as they are in my face, I have managed to shake every one up every time
I’m in the room. Not to self; if I ever
buy more Adirondack dabbers or distress
crackles, I’m going to do the same thing. Of course I’ll need more room to keep
bottles lying about, but we’ll deal with that later.
The purple papers are from said Mica Gloss; eggplant and
silver. Still playing around to try to get the rich effect that is displayed
all around the Judikins show booth, and I will get there!
And here is a card I made for my Mother’s dear friend who
dislocated her hip in a fall. I embossed
the gloss paper, then used a Tim Holtz die to cut out the opening, creating a
mat.
So happy WOYWW! And Happy 4th . Have a great
weekend everyone!
You shake your bottles every day? Hmmmn! You need one of them thingey machines that forensic scientists have to shake them up for you when you are not there!!

such a beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, the colours are lovely. I would not be able to shake all my jars every day...that would mean I would get no crafting done! Enjoy tomorrow. #49

Lovely card, is that a stamp or did you draw the flowers? As for shaking the bottles every day, I can imagine adding that to the list when we go away, feed dogs, water greenhouse, shake bottles - hmmm don't think so, I would struggle to remember to do it myself!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why (well I do it was blogger) I thought I was 113, so went and visited all the 3s and told them I was 113. Someone told me I am 136 - so I am whoops, so I am starting over on the 6s, not sure how far I will get!
