Presenting the talented Lindy Gimbrone!

Lindy made an awesome card using OTM's Color Mists for the background and then tried her hand at my Faux Sand Formula. She did a beautiful job didn't she?

Mail-Art Tin

I created this mail-art piece for a friend I intend to mail it as is through the mail. I used a large rectangular windowed tin by cutting the background paper to fit and then adding the image that was given to me by Karen Owen . I used watercolor pencils to color her dress and gel pens to accentuate then I added her onto the background with foam pop dots to raise her up. I added another piece of scrap paper to the front of her and stuck the sides on with double stick tape. I then added the moss and bird using some multi-purpose adhesive. The front label bracket was added by marking holes with a pin then popping brads through to secure it. Finally I used double stick tape on the ribbon and wrapped it around the outside of the tin to keep it closed.

On the backside I added some rub-on's I had laying around and wrote with a permanent marker I then sealed it with PYMII.

I couldn't resist sharing this picture of the Wood Journal that Kris Henderson created, it turned out so awesome!!

Kris used one of OTM's Wood Journals and burned spots with a wood burning tool. She then gave it color by using Color Mists on it. She also added copper nails and a hand shaped drawer pull and beautiful fibers. To seal and protect it she used PYMII.

Acrylic Domino

Supplies Used

• Clear Acrylic Dominos
• Watercolor Pencils
• White Sailer Pen
• Crystal Lacquer

I had a few questions and I thought I'd add that the side I'm shown working on is rough and so the watercolor pencils take to it very nicely and because of it being rough do not smear when I add the Crystal Lacquer.
