PLAY TIME!


Once again I have been a bit slack keeping up my blog.
The Easter holiday period has been a blur of comings and goings...us going to visit my folks over the Easter period and my grand-daughter coming to stay for a few days, leaving just in time for a BIL to arrive, who in turn, left before some friends arrived for a quick over night stay on their way home from their Easter holiday!
It was lovely to see them and we not only had a yummy Chinese dinner out, but we girls had an hour or so play before bed-time while the boys exchanged their veiws on the world!
My friend had never played with beeswax, so I set about changing that. We quickly went thru' my box of scraps and spare images and both made an ATC...here is mine.I used scraps of two paper napkins as the background,a Zettiology Collage image of Mona,some of my printed harlequin paper and butterfly wings and the gold paper border is part of the negative left overs from using a crown punch.
It is entitled "Mona Tries Collagen".
Unfortunately I didn't get to scan my friend's ATC.

LOL!! "Mona tries collagen"!! Too funny! Great job on this Barb!! I have to say, my one foray into beeswax did not end well! Maybe I will try again sometime! The results, as demonstrated in your piece, would be worth a second attempt! Nice work!!

Hi Barb,
I hope you don't mind if I add you to my blog list. I love your sense of humor AND of course your talent.
When I first read this Mona tries Collagen and then you said you couldn't get your friends....I thought you were some how referring to you friend's collagen - anyway, that made me laugh again!

Thanks for your generous comments too!

Barb, I love the beeswax effect on this card and the humour, it's great.
