THURSDAY AFTERNOON EFFORTS..


Hello Everyone..

No finished projects to share today but I made a good start on backgrounds with alcohol inks and my favourite water paints..not water paints.. Acrylic paints..with hits and misses, but a very relaxing afternoon and ready for my day off tomorrow..

First up...


Had the urge to make a circle of bark with masking tape..


All painted up and all ready to go..


Then tried rusting up cogs and things with just paint as I do not have the real stuff..and my modelling paste has gone all crusty.


My paint colours on the side there...


And it worked!!...[ I think]


Then why not leaves??..all the colours were there..so I die cut spellbinders leaves and painted them up too..


Ooo..dogs breakfast..no paint.


Love these leaves and have a project floating in my head for tomorrow..


Then tried to use up the paint on left over kraft card, as that is the card stock I used for the leaves and cogs...


And that was my Thursday afternoon..

Thank so much for stopping by..cannot wait to get started tomorrow..

Luv CHRISSYxx
