Day 10...today Ive created a decorated envelope and its going to be sent to my friend Gina in the states..its a recycled envelope you can see the old stamp in the corner!!. I created it by layering with gesso first and the adding some liquid ink and spreading it out with an old credit card. I then added acrylic paint and did the same, I then filled in the gaps with water soluble wax pastels and
to finish off I stamped over the top using gesso on the stamp and with a flower stamp using stazon ink.. I think that would give the postman someting to talk about!!

  1. Wow - now I want to do this with my old envelopes! If I ever get my next ATC kits in the round robin, I will send them in a very nice envelope - which will unfortunately get covered with customs forms and the like, but what can you do?)
