One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Make it Monday

Laura Basson has a video over at
Use your die cuts as a template for sponging on a background color.  I happen to have a clear sheet of the mosaic from the SAF this last August and it was sitting right on my desk!
So I put it to good use!
I used aqua mist, Hawaiian shores and tropical teal and sponged it all over after I used versamark and clear embossing powder on the mosaic.
Thanks for the terrific video Laura!
Wet paint III is the die cut and sentiment!

SAF back to Ancient Rome and a little Mosiac picture

I had to have DH perform repair work on my xyron
before I could use it...we finally got it working today.
Can you see all the butterflies?
This was a little intense because almost all my little mosaic pieces came out of the backing, so I was putting together a puzzle before I could complete my work...then I was totally missing 6 pieces...so into the garbage can I was digging...pulling out every little piece of paper.  I found 4!
OH NO!  I was just getting ready to use my outer piece as a template and stamp and cut so I could get 2 more pieces to fit into my picture...when for some reason I picked up my arm and found this:
Linda nearly split a gut laughing and I nearly had tears running down my leg!!
 
LOL!!

SAF Exploring Ancient Rome with Lizzie Jones

Visiting Ancient Rome
Lots of texture with Mosaic
 
Made a stencil with the mosaic die and embossing paste

Made a stamp with the mosaic die and then embossed with versamark and clear embossing paste, then sponged it with aqua mist ink.
 
More to go....
