Terry: I had fun making this card, sounds a bit strange because it is a card that you sent to someone when a loved one has passed but still..I had fun making this card. And you can use this card for many other occasions offcourse...The background is made with a layer of gesso, a bunch of panpastels mixed with water. When you play with PanPastels and water the colours mix so pretty all over your card or piece of paper that you are working with. So I used purple, orange and red. When the background dried up I stamped an image on it and last but not least I stamped a sentiment on my card.

I worked with the following products:

Gesso

White COARSE Pearl Medium for PanPastels

Red Iron Oxide PanPastel

PanPastel Rich Gold Metallic

PanPastel Magenta Extra Dark

Claire C I've been inspired by all the lovely fresh greens and Spring flowers around and made a little canvas for my DT project this time around. You can find all the details on my blog
