WOYWW

It is Wednesday, isn't it?  Big project completing next week so I have been busy, busy, busy getting everything in place and have no idea where the time is going to!  Anyway, I have been crafting, a little bit.  I was looking at one of my new stamps, another Divine Missives one: The Gaze, and thinking I wished I could stamp it onto one of my backgrounds for my postage stamp book, but with the colours of the background showing through the main stamp and the flesh parts coloured in flesh.  I could have messed around with acetate, but I didn't have any to hand.  I did, however, have a piece of Safmat sitting there minding it's own business, so I decided to try that.  Stamped the image in black stazon then coloured in the flesh with some blended prisma colour pencils.  I'm quite pleased with it.

Crappy photo though - not my usual camera.  I just snapped this quickly with my cheapie handbag camera as I was on the way out to work this morning so I could upload it during the day.  I gave her a surround of gold Ferro stamped with some text and flourishes then, when that was dry swiped some precious metal paint in Copper over the top.  Then I realised my fatal error...... I'd done it all upside down!!! So I used some of t!m's metal foliage to hide the original hole and I'll make a new one at the top.
I've followed instructions and taken some pics of what's around my desk.  Here is a pic of the chest of drawers and the shelf unit balanced on the top of it that sits in the recess behind me, and the wall storage hanging thingy wotsits that are on the chimney breast beside me.  All very messy, much like everything else around me!

Hi Kay,

Making the late nite rounds - my WOYWW schedule has been so out of sorts these past few weeks! Love your photos, esp the last one. My fave item is the painting of the girl on the bottom left of the bottom right photo (did I confuse you with that?) She jumped out at me and put a smile on my face!

Have a great week!

Ramona :-)

I know what you mean about books/films. But the adverts look so good on this one I'm going to give it a chance ;) Craig actually went WHAT?? at the end of Hannibal Rising. Really loudly. But it was ok as so did the rest of the men in the audience! *g*

Don't work to hard this week - save some energy for all that creating you are going to do when you get back :) See you soon.
