C. of C -week11- Blended Batik


This weeks challenge over at StudioL3 is found on page 36 of TH book, Blended batik, I have to admit this is a new to me.

As I am currently away in caravanland, folk may wonder why I have the dreaded household item of an iron with me. Well the said item, is a rather aged french appliance, that I have had for many moons, hardly used, with one careful owner. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would bless this being in my cupboard.

I used Paper Artsy, Bricks and Mortar stamps, Wild Honey, Vintage Photo and Black soot distress inks, for this 4x4inch piece.
I enjoyed trying this new technique for the words and hope that the result is how it should look

Thankyou for stopping by to take a look.

  3. Just goes to show, never throw out those old appliances-- they just might help you create a complete masterpiece!

    I LOVE THIS CARD!

    What a great sentiment, and it worked perfectly with the CCC technique du jour! The little houses are so sweet, and the design is genius. I'd hang this in my living room, personally. Great job, Yvonne!
