Here is a close-up
This was really hard to photograph! I used Pale Plum cardstock, a piece of Polished Stone using Pale Plum and Plum and Faux Metal with a topping of Glimmer Mist Watercolor (from the Technique Junkies newsletter). The two purple layers have silver metallic ink sponged around the edges- it just does not show up well here at all. There is also Pearl Glimmer Mist sprayed on the BG Plum CS.

I am visiting my parents this weekend- my Mother is a true artist- she teaches Porcelain painting and is active in a couple of guilds. Here are some samples of her current projects:
A Vase
And a plate with guilded gold
and a picture on porcelain
When she asks us what we want for Christmas, what do you think I ask for…..? Yep…I want it all!

Thanks for stopping by today and have a Blessed weekend!
