Not been doing much recently - been feeling really unwell.

Anyway - here is something I managed to make, a commission for a lady at work for her sister's birthday. It's my new favouite technique again, card painted with black and brown acrylic paint and then stamped and embossed in clear.

Gold paint layered over the top and then ironed over a blank peice of paper so that the embossing powder lifts and the dark paint underneath shows through.

I then added some gems and ribbon, and layered onto a card blank I had painted blank.

I then hand wrote the greeting as I thought that stamps or whatever would not match the slightly grungy style of the card. It went down quite well so that's all I can ask for, really!

Hopefully will get the time tomorrow to make a couple of ATCs that I've got to do for the handrawn fantasy swap. I've an idea for a dragon curled over his hoard, with his eyes glowing in the dark. . . Hope it comes out the way I plan!
