So, I was playing with my Gelliplate and this 

paper was one of the nice ones I managed to create.

Using only one color of paint and the stamp from

Carabelle Studio. Since I liked the result, didn't really

wan't to cover it with anything and when I saw the

sketch at Less is More, I knew what I wanted to do.

Today is the best day because of you

Here's another card with a image I colored

on my summer holiday. I'm trying to learn

a new way to color with my waterbased Zig pens

... not yet even close of what I have in my mind, 

but a learning curve happening,  lol

In a background paper there is another learning

curve, I'm trying to get something nice out

of my Gelliplate .... have to say, result are not

the ones I'm dreaming, 

but I'm testing and testing and testing how to make things work.

And watching YouTube also, 

it is not that easy than it looks like.

I don't like to waste things so I'm using

stuff I came up with, :=)
