WOYWW 472

Well, nothing much to show.  My workshop at the club didn't go down too well but then I must confess I did do a lot of 'nattering' with Pat, our Chairwoman.


See the card with the flower and the fern in yellow?  Well that was supposed to have the flower bleached out with using just water.  Didn't work with Adirondack Inks (had just been told to take Dye inks) so mine remained the colour of the background.  In front of that is a pink flower, that was done on Vellum and coloured on the back with reinkers - it looks fine but I now want to use my ball tools and do some work from the back on it like Parchment Crafters do.  My other card was a total disaster as my inks did not dry on the pearlescent card - not my fault I might add.  The fourth card I didn't even get around to starting LOL.

Behind those cards are still the charms for the round journal I showed you last week and there is a super duper little paint palette that I once bought from my friend *Mary which has lots of colours all stacked up on top of one another.  Must open it another week and show you.

To the right is a book I once did with Julia Andress (I think that was her name) which I ever finished but am going to because I know just the person to give it to.  I will say no more in case she comes on here and read this blog post.

Well that is it.  This is a scheduled post because I won't be home until late Tuesday night and could be quite 'cream crackered' after my four days in Amsterdam.  Can't miss out on WOYWW can I?

* Heard last night that they are having a Memorial Service for her in July and her niece in law is going to take her iPad with her so I can link in and be part of the Service.  I was so pleased and am certain to cry a lot but at least I will feel as if I am there.
