Whoa, I just found out that I won a £20 gift voucher from
The Craft Barn with my up page. Thx guys.
Here’s my next entry with the word silence.
I found this quote
Silence is the way to avoid many problems,
smile is the way to solve many problems.
I liked the fact that is does not only have silence in it but also
smile, I found that just perfect as it forms a bridge with the previous
page.
The background is stamped with music notes and colored with distress stain
broken china over which I glued some gelli printed tissue paper. There was an
oops during the gluing, I was a bit overzealous and the tissue paper
got thorn, but I left it that way and now it’s part of the design.
Now I’m going to start on a dazzle page in my dictionary.
Love your gelli print background, looks gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI first tried it with pearlescent paint but you didn't see the butterflies then.
DeleteLovely texture in the background! Fun quote!
ReplyDeleteThanks, i love to work with quotes, they can be so inspirational.
DeleteBrilliant background full of texture.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I like how all the colors seem to blend with each other.
DeleteBeautiful page and great quote!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment about my beer mats! I bought a whole stack of them some years ago from an auction site!

a ok, they will be turned in a fun little book by the end of the year.
DeleteVisiting from The Craft Barn - Lovely background. Clever link to the previous page and the quote here is perfect :o)
ReplyDeleteThanks, don't think I will be able to find a link every single time, but who knows.
DeleteGreat textured background. Hope you can find that 'bridge' every time!!
ReplyDeletewe'll see
DeleteLovely background with the Gelli printed bits and the photos add a fun touch to the page.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I think it's the first time I incorporated photos but it definitely works.
DeleteLove your page. x
ReplyDeleteThanks, just hopped over to your blog and your work is fabulous.
DeleteI am inspired to start using my Gelli that I got for Christmas and still haven't taken from its original box. It makes the background even better and I love that you used tissue paper. And I really like the quote that has so much meaning.
ReplyDeleteCan't believe you let it in the box this long, when mine arrived I immediately got stuck into it and that hasn't changed since then, I love the gelli plate, I really think this is one of my best craft buys.
DeleteOops or no, that is a beautiful background.
ReplyDeletethanks, sometimes an oops is just what the page needs :-)
