Good Morning!!! I've been having some fun with some of my Chocolate Baroque stamps this week!
I took my usual blank piece of white card stock and stamped my mushrooms - aren't they fabulous? (for mushrooms!!!!). I then masked them over with masking fluid and then ironed on some crumpled up wax paper - straight over the top of the masking fluid. I then blended on some colours (chosen for the Chocolate Baroque challenge 26 colour palette) and it shows up the wax that has transferred beautifully.
Here you can see me getting there! I have now painted in the mushrooms using the same inks diluted with water and stamped my Chocolate Baroque sentiment of "May all your dreams come true!".
This card will go to one of my daughters friends who is going to start University - she will address it to a "fun guy" - fungi - mushrooms????!!!!!!!!
Quite happy with this one and it was really nice and relaxing to do with the blending and colouring in.
I would like to enter this card in to the following challenges:-
