Sheena Douglass workshop

I was at a workshop run by Sheena Douglass last weekend (I've put a link to her blog on my sidebar) and I've been asked to blog about it, so here goes. It was a great day, about 25-30 people were there, and we made 4 projects:

These 2 were made using distress inks, and water, and then the trees were stamped with archival black ink. The one on the left is on the front of a notebook - one of those shopping list ones. Great gift idea!

The one on the right is a card. and the swirl was embossed with silver embossing

powder. The moon and snow flakes were made with water. I can demonstrate how to do this, so if you'd like to learn, just get a few friends together and book a PartiCraft party with me. Those distress inks are great to work with, can't wait to get my hands on some more...

These 2 images were made using heat-proof acetate, pigments, tissue and floor polish! I did the castle one first and the pigments mixed up too much, I think the second one, the stag, turned out much better. I've not mounted it onto a card yet.

This is the fourth project - we put floor polish and pigments into a glass bauble, the different colours came out well, and every one had a different look. The photo doesn't do it justice!

I'd love to read your comments,
