I have taken the photo in the half light this afternoon and like the blue tones it has given me, quite watery I thought. This project has given me an opportunity to use both real shells and some resin shells that I have in my collection and although you can't see it very well I have used a Cuttlebug embossing folder with inks and foils again.
Here's a photo taken with the flash on, which gives it a different feel altogether, but you can see where I have painted some of the fish scales with perfect pearls and cosmic shimmers and I used round dome stickers over the fish's eyes. I have also accented the fish using the Inkssentials white pen.
You can see the distressed frame on this photo, which was painted with acrylics and rock candy crackle paint. I really like this very shabby flower.
Each Thursday there is a spot prize for those who enter. I have wanted to for ages, but the time hasn't allowed me to do so, but I have stepped down from the OSAAT DT this week so I will have a little more time to play with different media and messy things. I also experimented with making a water anemone with muslin and distress inks and again I am pleased with the outcome.
Hope your day has gone well.
Don't forget to leave me a comment on my Blogaversary Giveaway telling me what is your favourite piece I have done in the last few months.
Thanks for stopping by and have a good evening.
luv and hugs {brenda} xoxox

Hi Brenda lovely project, with lots of different techniques. Looks like you had fun!
Thanks for your lovely comments on my cards, and yes we have snow...only 2 or 3 inches for the moment, but it looks like its here to stay.
I had to buy new boots, but found out the hard way...not to go for a walk in them! Tootsies still giving problems, but special shoes are helping. I actually fractured some toes...don't know how long that takes to heal properly. You take care now, and hopefully winter takes it easy on you!
