I just found a few minutes to make a little card on an ivory Cromatico folded vellum.

fading summer colours
There’s some quite strong colour there, and a bit of detail added by my new dream-pen, the Uni-ball Signo bit 0.18. Stamp by Lost Coast Designs. I love the whimsical, ‘imagined Greece’ character to that image. I’ve brushed gesso and antique gold paint on to the dried rose for a touch of luxury.
Thanks for visiting!

I love the fragility of this card. I love to visit here. Your blog is so inspirational. I just bought the new Craft Stamper magazine featuring your project with Distress inks – love it.
Rachel what glue do yuo use to adhere your different elements such as dried flowers, pearls and buttons. Does each material require a different brand or type of adhesive ? Which works best for you ?
I so wish I could attend a class with you.
Have you ever thought of doing online video classes to purchase similar to Donna Downey?
thanks for sharing your exquisite work

Thanks Tricia, I’m glad you enjoy the blog! I tend to use either Glossy Accents or Matte Accents, both by Ranger. They are both surprisingly strong glues, and also useful for sealing work or making clear ‘pebbles’.

Your artwork never fails to inspire me whether it is on your blog, Craft Stamper or Stampington and co. publications. Today I plan to try my hand at the techniques used in the latest issue of Craft Stamper as I have the Papillion stamp. Lynne M
