pink harmony

it was Racial Harmony Day and my girls were dressed up for the occasion.

not so obvious, I used matte-gel to adhere white tissue to form the background, with brown stenciling. with the same stencil, i did some pink embossing as well. 

I altered some chipboard using gesso, versa pink ink and gold emboss.

the Heart chipboard was coloured using gelatos.

taking a break from mixed-media - happy baby

my little one was going through the photos/video in my phone and she was watching a video of herself crawling at 9 months. 

looking through those photos just prompted me to quickly download them and do a quick layout. 

my most cheerful, photogenic baby... such a joy to behold...

I used MS doily maker for the centerpiece and lightly inked it. it's a good buy :-)

from another angle

i like this photo a lot and thought that I would do another take on this. 

I used gelatos to have the green background. 

I have quite a fair bit of green stuff, so I thought i could make use of them, ribbons, washi, buttons.

I"m beginning to like mixed media a lot.... :)
