Love the colours! 1 minute to spare still counts :) oh...and on mine? Normal sized index card...mini hand print was a stamp....it made me giggle to think it could have been a huuuuge index card :)
oooh! I like it. I'm really bad about listing what media I used on what I post, but now inquiring minds want to know, paint? ink? embossing? too curious! it's the middle of the night so no capitals but that doesn't mean I'm not serious. (that was my serious tone of voice, could you tell?) Oh, and stellar time management skills.
I snap to attention at the serious voice. let's see if I can remember...there were two layers of spray ink & stencils to start, then acrylics with stencils/stamp. black gesso circles, filled with white gesso than colored with portfolio pastels. black gesso/stencil starts. decorated with paint pens and gel pens.
I've been visiting your blog for a while. I'm glad to see that we're both doing this. (I'm tempted to make some in 4 x 6 later and use them as mail art!) Love your colorful first card! Those dots and stars are great!
I love how you used the stars around your today. You squeaked in! Nice to see a bit of purple, not a color I use much, don't know why, looks great here. xox
see how I squeaked that one in with one minute to spare?
