Hybrid Inks #3 - can you believe it

Totally inspired by all the beautiful creations on the Paperartsy blog - had a go at the technique shown by Clare Messenger ( full details here) using distress oxides ink and pearl glaze as a resist.  I'll definitely be trying this one again.  So I didn't detract from the pretty background I decided to keep all my stamping to black and made this pretty little card.

The word "believe" came with the fairy Stamp - thought it was very apt as I can't "beieve" I've manage to make three entries to the current topic of Hybrid Inks ! thank you Paperartsy and all the designers for the fab inspiration blog can be found here

Thank you for looking xx

Hybrid Inks #2

I now know why everyone loves distress oxides - they're so addictive 😊

So here's my second entry to the latest Paperartsy Challenge  - see  here for some fantastic ideas and inspiration

To be honest I didn't really have a plan on where this would end up but the final background vaguely remind me of a gorgeous sky.  It's doesn't really show in the picture but there's a touch of treasure gold round the edge and distress glitter on the "path".

I then mounted the main panel and popped it in my journal on a fresco paint background - love how these complement the oxides

a bonus how the shadows of the metallic thread  show up on the right hand side.

Glorious sun this morning - took these photos on the new patio area our son has just built for us - pretty good for a first attempt,don't you think ?

Thank you looking - hope you all have an enjoyable weekend xx
