Inbetween Days...

`Surreal'
This ATC was made using the resin fresco technique and a microscope slide. Full instructions can be found in Artist Trading Card Workshop, a book by Bernie Berlin. This book rocks!!!

A few more days left of school- then holidays. It has been a very busy term and I just can't wait for a break.

Frida ATC

I used the Cuttlebug to make the borders and emboss the background, (which I brushed with some pearl powder in Inference Blue). I mounted the images of Frida on chipboard and wrapped the edges in tape and microbeads. I also wrapped the images in gold thread- another technique I learnt in one of Kelsey's classes.
Have a great weekend!!

`Till death...' ATC

I have been so busy lately, I haven't had time to visit you, sorry!! I have been neck deep writing reports and although I don't have many, I've probably been a bit too pedantic checking and rechecking etc....
Anyway, I received my package of Bombshell Stamps on Wednesday and this gave me extra inspiration to have everything done so I could have a little time to play.

New Canvas and Tattoos

This a new canvas using texture paste and the cuttlebug-(my favourite). There are layers and layers of cutltlebug borders. Unfortunately, the colours in the photo are quite different in real life. I definitely need a new camera.

These are my tattoos.
The rose was chosen as it is my favourite flower and has deep personal meaning for me. The second is an ambigram of the words earth, air, fire and water. Each of us in my little family has a birthday that falls under these elements. The last is a floral tattoo on my foot. I had them done a couple of years ago.
