Engraved Etching

here is an engraved etching that we were challenged to make into a mixed media piece. The background is a blend of gelatos inks. I enhanced the image with water color inks . I used distress inks on the doilies and paper. I added a shabby chic flower that I made as well as a feather butterfly that I also made. These are fun to do. If anyone has tried to do this, I would love to know more about your experience.

  1. Dear Josie,

    I have found you now about the google+ because I have got a message from you, that I am in your

    And so I make a visit to you. You can make wonderful cards - they are looking so fantastic.
    The cards with the flowers looks so beautiful and the halloween card.
    And your new creation is also fantastic. Good picture from the girl.

    Sorry, for my ugly english - but it´s a long time ago that I have learned this language.

    If you have time make a visit to me.
    You are welcome.
