TLC399

Photo Details

Poster: snowmanqueen

I tried several times and this is the best, but I admit it was a fun challenge.
I used So Saffron, More Mustard and Cajun Craze on the Acrylic block. I used water the first time, the second time I used Champagne shimmer mist and with it being mixed with alcohol, the paper wasn't as warped, also gives a little sparkle. Stamped images and sentiment. TFL

This is beautiful! I love when there is white space too! AND -- when I used SU inks it always came out with white space. So you did it just right -- it turns out differently with different inks (even different dye inks). LOVE the colors!
