Corry
This time, I made a booklet of dominoes.
First I worked the stones with alcohol ink and stamps.
Then I worked a strip of paper with distress ink and stencils.
I stamped the strip with different stamps, and blended some part with chlorine.
Last but not least, I creased the strip of paper to the site of the dominoes, folded the strip and glued it on the dominoes. And I also attached a ribbon to close it.

Jan For my project this week I decided to make a little start on my journal, I have used paints and distress inks and lots of goodies from Polkadoodles

Polkadoodles Goodies used

Jane - As Easter is not too far away I have decorated a canvas panel to celebrate. I have used flower and bunny stamps, stencils and coloured with watercolours!

Essential Polkadoodles Shopping
TerryI made a canvas for your inspiraton. I worked on the background with various types of stamps and started with Gesso, then I used Distress Oxide. I played with a stencil and stamped some of the georgous flowers from the new stampsets from Polkadoodles, they are really lush. I cut the flowers and colored them with Distress oxide and then colored 2 different butterflies. Then I played with where I wanted to put them on the canvas. I stamped the sides and edges of the canvas with leaves and stamped some hearts onto the canvas. Last but not least I placed a sentiment onto it. That is how is should be.....Enjoy the little moments...
