Playing...practice, practice, practice

Whichever way you want to look at it, it is still great fun!  These are little 4 x 6 cards so if one turns out really bad I can just toss it.
Loved how this one turned out, using the edge of a credit card to manipulate the inks.


This was inspired from one I saw in my AI group.  I liked hers better, but this one came out pretty cool too.  What looks gray here is actually silver, so it shimmers at the right angles.


With this one I waited till the inks were almost dry to drag the card through in a zigzag pattern.  I love the results...will do this again!


Loved the color merges that happened in this and the card edge was used while the inks were still pretty moist so it blurred nicely into a different look.

Following the frame style again...

Did a picture to look good in a frame I already had, and it took forever, as I kept changing and adding to it...
...and I guess it was worth the hassle, as the AI group I am in all loved it.  The colors are much softer than others before and I wasn't sure if it worked.  But I will take public opinion happily and put it out there for someone to purchase.

Autumn Fireworks finished...



...and put into my ETSY shop My hand is doing just great, and I am finished with the therapy and only have to do regular exercises at home for about a month. I was delighted to get three sales in the shop in the last couple weeks, but that also makes me anxious to get to work and fill the empty spots. I wanted to get at least 50 items available before I relaxed about it and allowed myself to do some personal quilting--LIKE THAT DARNED KING-SIZE BED QUILT-before another winter goes by!!
