Don't Eat The Daisies...

The wonderful Michelle is back at PaperArtsy Towers this week, but I must admit my heart sank when I saw that she was journaling. Of course I have a journal, in fact I have several, all with pages torn out 'cos I'm rubbish at journaling. But I did have some new  Jofy stamps  that were begging to be inked soooo time to give it another go.
This was the first time I'd used Fresco paints in a journal and wow what a difference they made. I really am not buying any other paints than these from now on.
I've used stamps from JoFY 12 and HP 1004.
I've coloured bit in with Portfolios and blasted with the heat gun to make the wax run and blend.
I actually enjoyed making this, and the page is staying :-)
Thanks very much for looking, and Happy Mothers Day x

What an absolutely wonderful card, Sue...but what I really love, love, love is that you have embedded a tag into your background. An definitely going to have to *lift* this technique!
