ABC's of Life
I was inspired yesterday after seeing my friend's blog -Kylie. She was inspired by my other very talented and creative friend Amy (ownder of Commit2paper). I tried my hand at it. It turned out different than I expected, but good. I took left over thickers and placed them all over a 12 by 1 sheet, painted the sheet green, and covered in crakling paint. I then inked it with distressing ink and glimmer misted it with a blue base and green base mist. I then just scrapped like I would on a normal piece of 12 by 12. I have no patience! The paint did not dry fast enough for me. Here are a few shots of it!

I love love this. We had a challange a good while back to do the "abc's of me" and this would be the perfect way.
great job!
love the skunk ideas too!
This is cool looking - I like the texture you get using the thickers and crackle paint.
It like it. It's funny how they all turned out different from each other. I think that the reason my punctuation and Amy's letters were so defined is that we used much darker paints than you. The LO really looks good though. I put my page in a page protector and flattened it under some books and it looks much better after a day or so if that helps.
Thanks for the tip Kylie!
Way cool!!!
Great LO! Love the texture.
Great! And the title is perfect for the technique used by amy and kylie
Awesome!!!!
