Gosh where has time gone? been over a month since i last posted on here, must get back into the habit of updating my blog again. lately i haven't done that much art because i am helping my husband in the garden in the lovely hot weather. we are doing up a trailer into a camper so that's taking up most the time however i made some ATC's the other day with the backgrounds being in encaustic wax, the first one is a gorjuss girl stamp and i made it into a flying themed one and the elephant is from the daisy and dandelion set, playing football with an encaustic background but i also did the grass in distressed ink. made several others but these are the two i like most. x
