This week’s quote was from the Buddha, and the challenge was to use drips and splatters. Heck yes! I used Dina Wakley paints, Gelli printed tissue and gel medium.

#colourmepositive week 8
This week the challenge was a quote about fear, and to cut out text. I often cut out the wording, so this was a simple one for me. And, no, I didn’t write down my biggest fear. Hell no!

Making some general cards
I’ve spent the weekend finishing off the multi-step Christmas card pile, and had a few blanks left over. Rather than tuck them away unused, I decided to make a couple of general cards using a favorite StencilGirl stencil by Jessica Sporn and some leftover Gelli prints. The stamping is done with Dina Wakley paint, which has a lovely matt finish.

Practicing some new techniques
I’ve been inspired by Dina Wakley’s art lately and have been working through her tutorials in Somerset Workshop magazine. I enjoy the way she uses layers in her work, her handmade stencils, and the cheery colours. I’ve made these three 6×6″ canvases to brighten up my work space. Now I need to start incorporating her techniques into my own art practice so it becomes part of what I do, not a copy of her style. I really like that finding her blog, then an article or two in Somerset magazines, has given me some more tools and techniques to use.
