Our trip to Scrapbooking Premiere gave me a little inspiration to come home and complete this lo last night. I am not usually into Shabby Chic styles, but playing with the alcohol inks yesterday inspired me to use them on more than just transparency or glass. I used them on the paper doily behind the photo and also to age the lace. (Remember to use them in a well ventilated area otherwise they can send you a little high). I adore this photo which was taken by a friend at the Mackay show and I thought it deserved extra special treatment. The beautiful flowers are from Prima...bought them at the Brisbane expo....divine!!!
The shabby chic blog http://letsgetshabby.blogspot.com has some really great ideas for these type of los as well. I think I might be visiting this blog quite often for inspiration.
I have to go to stocktake today so better finish off and get moving............have a great Sunday.
