Hello and welcome to the Mix-Ability challenge! Our goal is to make mixed media, easy, approachable and FUN! We want to convince you that no matter what your style is - you can DO it!
Your projects can be any type � cards, scrapbook layouts, art journal projects, 3D pages.
My challenge today is to use something that rolls with at least two types of mediums (ink, paints, gesso, embossing paste, markers, Smooch... you get the idea!)
Your rolly tool could be a brayer, a marble, a car tire, a bowling ball...

Cool - there are some fun options for this that come to mind even at this early hour in the morning. I'm up for trying the rolling marbles again - and I'm pretty sure I've seen rubber/elastic bands wrapped round a brayer although I used a wood block when I tried that. And I like bubble-wrap on a Stampin' Up! wheel. Oh - and a a tracing wheel, that rolls too and would be a LOT safer than a car tyre, LOL.
Bummer - why do I have to go to work this morning when you've got my inspiration up and running?
Saw this in a newsletter in my inbox yesterday and thought of you .
This is the write-up that goes with it

"Snowy the Hen was attacked by a fox and lost most of her right leg. She managed to live on without it, and even continued to lay an egg everyday! But Snowy found walking difficult and slow.
My dad, being an engineer, couldn't help but come up with a solution and made a prosthetic leg out of fiberglass, which he fit the shape of her remaining leg. It wasn't perfect but definitely improved Snowy's walking. A week or so later, I spotted some left over yellow sugru and couldn't stop myself from making a little chicken foot to stick on the end of the prosthetic leg. OK it's questionable that the sugru foot actually makes the prosthetic any better (!) but I thought you might enjoy a photo of your fantastic product put to good use!" � Jane from Ireland

Here's mine doing double duty...
I'd still like to try marble rolling, but it aint' going to happen today. Took me way too long to find the planet die after blitzing my desk during the week :rolleyes:.
