I’ve managed to add a little to my ART part of blog…not a lot.Considering I’m known as a chatterer(being polite here!)..I don’t seem to be able to write it down..maybe just need the practice! and a lesson in writing so peeps can understand me,as I do tend to speak kangaroo(hopping from subject to subject)….just thought you’d need an explanation 
Now I must go to figure out what I’m going to talk about and what Art I should include.
Well,it seems to be ok…so Hello!
ATC using alcohol ink background
I stamped words,using black archival ink,as I always UM ,I can’t say who manufactured it. Circus profile from Fusion Stamps,was stamped on RHS with archival ink,and a cut down acetate female image from Artchix Studio,was adhered using Xyron,to LHS,finished with gold German scrap,Artchix again. The overall effect doesn’t look very clear in a pic,but IRL the alcohol inks,which included some gold metallic,gives it an almost etheral look as moving card creates shimmers and colour variations.
Playing with alcohol inks
Recently I joined an ATC group,mostly newbies, I am not an expert ATCer,but don’t class myself as a newbie,so I decided to simply use napkins for backgrounds and embellishments, for swap,and send hostess,an ATC using alcohol inks on glossy cardstock as a base,a new tech for me. I have to say,it was more difficult than I expected it to be,as the ink does dry very quickly,using the blender lightens the colours,and stamping on more colour does create some strange edged shapes…hard to put into words…..I’ll add a pic to demonstrate.
A drought of creative juices.
I just can’t seem to get motivated these last few days.Maybe getting blog into gear has blanked everything else from my mind…..I have several projects,half finished,and inspiration is taking a holiday! Two more ,a mini BB and a canvas tag,in need of altering,arrived today….they were swiftly put on one side….tomorrow is another day!…hopefully an arty one!
Friends are essential!
Especially as I have been having trouble getting to grips with blogging.Hopefully with a new browser I can get on with the job..yay!
Good Morning!
I’ve attempted this sooooo many times today,that morning is almost afternoon!so this is short and sweet….testing..testing!aaaagh!
Woo hoo!
I’m a blog virgin! and wll remain so if I don’t manage to post this. Woo hoo! it worked!Now this is not a great beginning…it’s taken me over 2 hours to get this far….so not going to be a very active blog!
