Two challenges combined today. Jeanne S hosted both! My one word (F4A) sentiment is a random stamp. But first I brayered onto WW with a drops each of red & white acrylic paint. This reminded me of doing gelli plates with Nancy. After that was dry I brushed on some Gesso that Nancy gave me. Before that was dry I rolled a pencil over the panel, let that dry. Then I tried some die cutting - didn't work right & had to cut down the panel. Then it was like 'what am I going to do now?' I finally ended up with this image that I colored with markers before stamping. Still was at a loss & just pulled out an ef! This took me forever, but I'm happy with it as frustrated as it made me!! Senti is popped up.
Thanks for stopping by.
I lost my marbles! I wanted them for the roller thing for today's F4A. They must've gone out with the Hungry Hippo game....

Pencils and apples...you are clearly in a back to school mode! You are very creative to use the pencil to roll!

Glad you didn't give up in your frustration - this turned out great - and the techniques are crazy clever - a pencil? How cool! Gorgeous ef, too!
