crafting at last

 At last I have had some time to play - I want to make a journal cover and to try some different materials or techniques.  I have had a pack of Lutrador on the shelf for months and could never get around to using it.  I also have the wooden printing blocks I bought from Etsy a while ago.  I decided to use some lumiere paints and one of the blocks to add some flowers to the lutrador.

So far, so good.

The flowers look fine.

This is going to be a slow project so I will show some more in a day or two.

FROM THE BEACH TO THE COMPUTER

 I took this photo on one of our visits to the beach:  I never tire of exploring the rock pools.

I tried a couple of techniques 
with adobe photo shop to 
see what I could do.
I like the look of this first one.

This one reminds me of aboriginal art works and I might print it on some fabric to see how it turns out.
