Distress Ink to the watercolor paper.

Added a little gesso and used a some Prismacolor

pens, stamped the sentiment and glued my page

to my black Art Journal book.

don't forget to leave a comment,

So from Monday through Friday this week 

I'll be featuring fabulous Unity stamps.

I hope you'll like my makes and visit often and write a comment;

because someone will be winning some awesome 

red rubber Unity stamps, YAY!! 

So hop to my blog, leave a comment, and you might win!!!!

For today I made some teabag art using

beautiful Poppies stamp (I got this stamp from

a surprise bag - they are really worth the money)

For the first card I just stamped the image using

brown Distress Ink.

I placed a piece of paper under the teabag so that the 

image would show better.

For a second card I stamped the image on the teabag

and also to the paper I was placing under it.

I roughly colored the image going under.

And it gave nice soft color to the flowers.

For a third card I colored my teabag poppies

with Inktense pens. Teabag don't handle rubbing

very well, so if you do this, be gentle with your brush.

Thank you so much for hopping to my blog today,

I hope to see you again tomorrow.

Tant Grön, Tant Brun och Tant Gredelin

When I was making these ATCoins I kept thinking

about childrens book that tells a story about.

aunt Green, aunt Brown and aunt Purple (and uncle Blue).

It's written by Swedish writer Elsa Beskow,

and I liked it a lot when I was a kid.

Funny how old things comes to your mind 

while creating new things...

My daughter saw these coins and liked them a lot.

She says they are like seasons.

And since she liked them, I glued then

together and made a bookmark for her, 

and she is actually using it, LOL
