WOYWW Please don't eat the food colouring dye

Well, you could have, but not since I added it to the shaving cream ...


I know, it's pretty basic, but I have never actually tried it before. Results of first attempts (above), hmm, OK, but those food colouring dyes aren't very exciting, are they? Lets try some acrylic paint, some Glimmermist, some alcohol inks ... yes, that's better! More later.

The above pic is "around the corner" from my usual stuff. So here's that as well ...


And yes, there's that journal again. Still playing with pretty backgrounds, ho hum.
And the beginnings of some ATCs for the WOYWW swap.
 
Oh, and if nobody gives you any creative stuff for your birthday, buy your own ...


Catch you over at Julia's.

    Haha happy birthday fellow crafter! I know what you mean, my parents are off to Saudi Arabia and all I ask for was for them to visit the craft store and get me some delicious goodies! lol

    Love your backgrounds. The ATCs are turning out pretty good if you ask me. :)

    Happy WOYWW. xx

    Love those papers, vlowers, stencil and embossing flowers and you can never have enough Distress stains. I am fully in support of you buying what you want on your birthday. I have read about the shaving cream effect it looks really interesting. Fill me in when we catch up was it worth the mess?? Because I know I would make a mess. Those ATC's look gorgeous and I spot a few very nice B'day cards.

    I ALWAYS buy my own - it's so much easier than trying to explain to the male Moonshines exactly what I want!! Love your journal page and you ATCs look very funky. Have a great week. MMx #114
