Practice No002

Hello everyone and welcome.
Today I practiced by Linda Brown over on her blog Saturday afternoon and a bit of a play! project which you can see here
And I played along with her. 


Today's points,
1, Using the grunge paste
2, Stamping by Fresco paint
3, Painting onto grunge paste

1, I did very carefully then I got good results.
2, I stretched fresco paint on the craft sheet and gave to the stamp.
   It was good method,  I then added some colours onto it but it was     bad. 
3, Linda wrote "with a clean brush" I did and it's fine!

I haven't Grunge paper then I used Amazon package. These were difference in the color tone to the paint. I need Tim Holtz's.

I had done with fun and thank you Linda!

Thank you stopping by. xx


Hand made frame no1


I made a small wood frame that I made in the 45 ° corners.
I had use a pate because there was a little gap to contact it.
Perfect  close contact is very difficult but I did another one it was better.

Many thanks to the world people.

We have suffered a major earthquake and tsunami three years ago in Japan.
And many people died and they lost their property.
But people around the world helped us immediately when knew it. Lots of money, lots of goods and lots of encouragement words.
