I seem to have lost time, my mojo, and many other things this week, and how to kick start my mojo has been bothering me, so I decided to spray one of the new
postcards with some mica sprays. I used the oranges and reds from Crafty Notions, with a little bit of Gold Glimmer MIst,, and let them dry. I loved the way they dried in puddles.
Then I grabbed several stamps from my drawer, and used the
sequin open stamp with
Barn Door distress ink, and stamped on top. One of Tim's stamp sets aptly named
Purely Random, the words and two figures from the same set were stamped on top. I really wanted this to be almost a journal page/postcard, so added the
Ranger white pen in various places. I then used the
paper distresser to distress off the edges. It is really hard to know when to stop...but I have to say I was rather pleased with the finished piece. I think I shall use this piece for inclusion in the
Lots to do challenge this week, as it it is sort of distressed!
I know I shouldn't be taking a day off, but the chance to go and see the Van Gogh exhibition at the Royal Academy was too good an offer to refuse! A visit to the London Bead shop also beckons!! lol
Have a great day!
