in answer to steadily diminishing requests, here is my new RED cast. it's on for 3 weeks, then therapy. behind my cast is the fab new t-shirt from joanne (jojot), which really explains why i'm still going at it with one hand.
fun challenge. shook up the ingred. for my own gesso, applied it to wrinkled print, sponged and stamped. i like the texture a lot.

Way to go for trying out the homemade gesso, Anne. I'm still only about half way through the tub I bought a couple of years back - but it's going down faster these days.
Love the colour gradient in your background, a great setting for the silhouettes.
Brilliant t-shirt!

WOW Anne, you do a mighty fine job making cards with one hand! Love the red cast. Boy, times have sure changed from long ago when they just gave you the ugly plaster ones. My step dad used to wash mine. Bye bye to all my signatures! hehe Anyway, love your card here. Fabulous job. TFS :0)

Beautiful card! I love the colors of your bg and the mats. You do better with 1-1/2 hand than I can do with both. LOL! But I'm hoping to give Mix6 a try later today anyway. Your card shows best how the newspaper is used. I was having trouble understanding that part.
