Here we are at week 15 already! time flies when you are having fun :)
Go to Linda's blog to get details of this weeks challenge and
while youhaare there look at all of the great entries that have
already been posted for this week.
I enjoyed the technique but found that I could not stamp on
top of the alcohol inks very well, perhaps I was using the
wrong inks for that?
Anyway I used grunge board as the base, followed by the
technique (it's a secret, if you want to know go and buy
the book). I used some of Tim Holtz tissue tape along the
bottom and then used something new, a Tattered Angels
Foil chip. This has a foil resist on it which when you spray
a mist over it resists the colour, kind of a cool effect.
It is really fun trying all these techniques every week, some I
have done before but I have found more of them that are
new things for me. Thanks to everyone for all the kind
comments along the way and also for the great suggestions
I had on how to display my pieces of art.

Great piece! Your lion is super!
Ooo, terrific colors! Love that lion, really cool on this piece! Well done, love learning these new techniques, too!
I love how you treated your background and the jewels in the corners really set it off.
I love this. That foil chip is very cool too.
Love this work Marlene. Gorgeous colours, your background sets off the lion perfectly.

Very nice. Excellent color choices for your lion!
I love this piece! That lion really jumps out!
just great ....love the lion
Oh, this is COOL, Marlene! I'd been wondering about those foil chips, and now I most definitely want to get some. What a pretty and dramatic effect! Your AI Agate background is gorgeous-- the green and gold combo is a knock out! The tissue tape is a great touch, too.
I think your stamping looks really good, actually! I had trouble getting the ink to show up on the background, too, but I think that just adds to the "grunge factor" of this technique!
Your background is fab, Marlene, and I love that lion!
love that lion - it makes the piece shine!
WOW!!! Brilliant!! Love the colors!! =)
