Autumn

Hello there my lovelies! How are you? I do hope you are well and happy! I am very happy - still on cloud 9 after my workshop with Tim.

Tim is such a natural presenter and demonstrator of ideas and is so warm and funny. And Mario - what a fabulously warm and humble man - he was just lovely!

We made 10 tags using different techniques - 5 I had done before but I had forgotten them! 5 nexw ones using distress oxides. All good - expect to see some of the tags as I replicate the techniques in pieces I make. 

Today I did use one of the techniques but it didn't replicate well so I haven't shown it here!!! Will try again!


Here's what i made - a distress oxide background plus stamped leaves from scrapcosy stamped onto claritypaper....and words in stamps from Alison Bomber.


Here's a closer look!

I do hope you are okay! Off to pop around your blogs for a peep at what you've been up to! 

Hugs
