This was a print I took from the stencil.

Tomorrow we start to layer a…

I have been working on a lot of different projects lately and in doing so have tons of little scraps leftover. Since I tend to throw NOTHING away, these become perfect tidbits for creating ATCs.

There's a lot of water involved, so it's important to use watercolor cardstock. It is also important to dry between layers so that the colours don't run together and become muddy. I think that blending…

One look at my bedspread would be enough to tell you that I love colors – all of the colors, at the same time. In fact, my whole room is pretty colorful. Throughout college I took notes with different colored gel pens, and at work I post my daily fun fact on my whiteboard in a different color every day. It should be no
