Still here!

Just letting you know that I am still here. I have been troubled with a really bad back and not been able to do very much at all lately. Frustrated that I can't get in my craft room or on the computer much, but will join in again as soon as I can.

Black & Blue

Trying a new technique for 'rainbowlady's' challenge. I used a multi coloured inkpad to brayer onto white matt card, I then spritzed the brayer with water and brayered again to soften all the bands of colour. Then I used 'jazz blue' glimmermist and sprayed over the top and immediately used the clean brayer to blend the colour in.

I stamped with black ink and then highlighted with a white gel pen. The background paper is from Damask Delights CD.

Stamp used from E.I. Damask squares unmounted theme plate.
CD: Artylicious Damask Delights

Mackintosh Bauble


It is nearly two weeks since my last post, I have been away on holiday and then on a business trip so this is the first chance I've had to catch up. Thanks for the comments posted while I've been away.

This card is for the papertake weekly challenge this week for a charity event. I have kept this in simple monochrome using IE Mackintosh Bauble stamp, which as you can see is not just for Christmas. Apart from stamping in black ink I have added a bit of glitter glue.
