Fleurs and more fleurs

As I mentioned, I went to a mixed media workshop a couple of weeks ago. One of the demos was using a nib pen and calligraphy inks.  I absolutely loved the colours of the inks and had to come up with a new to use them as I successfully broke my nib 5 seconds after trying to use.  I didn't come up with a stunning new technique (dribbling ink onto a wet paper towel), but I did come up with some stunning flowers.

Here is a pictorial from dried towel to card.


Used Tim Holtz's Tattered Florals die to cut and glossy accents to glue

Love the colour variegation






As Gene Simmons says "It's good to be me." Off to work, but planning my next creative session making more fleurs.
