Today's Lesson From The Craft Room: Dream It...Then Do It!
I woke up this morning having had a series of dreams. I won't bore you with the ones about dropping grapefruits and dog walking (yes, bizarre), but the one that was very vivid was putting together some supplies in the craft room that I hadn't ever put together. So when it came to making today's challenge card, I decided to try my new technique! It's not something I have seen anywhere else - although in the craft world I have a feeling someone has done it before - but it involves a combination of ink, crystal effects, acetate and lots of mushing! Next time you have a dream worth pursuing, don't just dream it, do it!
I am really enjoying the light and texture created by this new technique I dreamed of! I can already see more experimenting going on in the craft room! I hope you like it!!!!
Feel free to come check out my blog at www.myfigments.blogspot.com! I have posted a video showing how to do this technique on both my blog and on You Tube. I'm calling the technique "Acetate Effects!" I love having visitors!
