It feels good. For one reason or another I've not been in the craft room for a couple of days and I missed it. Today however I just played.
What better place to experiment than a journal and for this the black one. Gelatos, tried scribbling them onto a pallet and picking them up with a water brush but that did not work very well. So they were scribbled down the page one colour at a time and then blended out with the water brush. Even with the black paper they held their colour remarkably well. Next stamping, new previously unused AALL and Create stamps with white Brilliance ink. First it was the flowers first and secondary stamping, Sakura pens used to colour the images which gives a nice sparkly effect. Then some more colouring with Whisper pens. After this a new AALL and Create stencil moved around over the page and Brilliance Lightening black pushed through. More stamping one in white and another in lightening black. The lightening black did not work so well traced around that on the inside with a silver shadow sakura pen filled the cat in. With the silver pen a few flowers doodled in and the legend "Spot the cat sitting in the garden" added.
It was fun! But did not make my fingers inky, that will be another post.
