'What you do speaks so loudly, I can't hear what you say.'

Holiday's over and now it's time to work again, so I've been busy with shop stuff. But the other day I started to play with something I've been fancying for a while and I just finished it off.

Remember that silver plumbing tape Tim Holtz used in his video? I've been playing with that. I attached some to a piece of card, then used a stylus tool to create a grid type effect, added Alcohol inks in Lettuce, Stream and Meadow, then overstamped it. The main image wasn' t too clear, as I expected, so I stamped the same image on acetate and overlaid it, attaching with metallic brads, to fit in with the metallic theme. It's not brilliant but it was fun. Unfortunately, I allowed myself to cut with (shock, horror!) scissors, so nothing's really straight. Back to work...........
