Well after the very early start, it feels like it should be night not mid afternoon.
We all had to be up at Auckland airport to say goodbye our son/brother at 4am this morning, and being in Hamilton we had a real early start. But he got away with no problems, so all i need to hear is that he has arrived safely, then i can relax a little bit.
But back to the reason we all read these blogs, sharing the wonderful crafts we all make.
As i mentioned in an earlier post after a busy weekend i managed to fit in a card class.
Once a month, the ever so wonderful and talented Jacquelyn Pedersen (click on this link to view her blog) comes down from Auckland, to teach us ladies a new technique or a wonderful gift idea to make.
This month we did some sponging, and using the SU Stamp set "lovely as a tree", we created this amazing card
Can you see the little hint of glitter, not too much as this is for a male, this is the second time i have had a go at background sponging, and i like the effect, i just to have a few more go's to perfect it a little more.
I really like this! I haven't been brave enough to attempt the background sponging yet. You did a great job!
ReplyDeleteHi Marie,
ReplyDeletethanks it is easier than i thought to do, i've been told the trick is to use less ink and layer more to deepen the colour, not the other way around
