This is for Lydia's mixed media challenge "transferance". Lydia provided a video tutorial (in an American accent, which truly surprises me as you all have Aussie accents in my head).
I digress, not only was there a video, there were links to several more tutorials....how could I go wrong.
I followed all of Lydia's instructions but I seriously struggled when it came time to rub the mod podge off with my fingers. As you can see, I had to get out a man sized scraper.
I did the technique again....same result. Oooops I used modeling paste instead of Mod Podge. You knew that didn't you. Buried under all these layers is a very lovely picture from a book.
Perhaps I should not upload this in the MIX129 challenge, but technically it is a MIX129, albiet a failed attempt.
The handdrawn water drops are from Lydias MIX 105 tutorial (I had no trouble with that - only two ingredients LOL.
In the spirit of 'transferance" I transformed the crazy bird into a fish. Thanks for looking and have a great weekend.

Oh my goodness I am smiling. I saw Lydia's challenge and said...I have no modge podge and a ton of stuff to do this weekend and it will just not happen...but your card has me smiling from ear to ear. Thank you for the smiles. On a day like today, they really come in handy.

Ok - I have told myself over and over that I did not need that crazy bird set but now that I see how it can be the crazy fish set, I have to get it. So fun Susie - you have done the most magical background and that fish looks like he is in underwater dream land. Stunning and into my faves. Hugz
