One Colour Thrinchie part 2

 

Good Wednesday Morning Ladies, 

We had another sunny but very cold day yesterday,  I let Milo & Bella out and even the decking had a layer of frost on, I thought the cats would take a step out on the frost and run back in,  they both ran off to explore,   Bella came in and Milo followed a few minutes later, I could hear him in the lounge getting all excited,   I thought he was fighting with Bella so shouted for them to quit it,  but Lucy shouted down that Bella was upstairs with her,  So I looked round to see what he was up to to find he was 'playing' with mouse!  I squealed to get Lucy's attention, which spooked Milo who picked up his mouse and ran out of the back door,  where he continued to play with his mouse, despite Lucy trying to enticing him in with treats,  the mouse was already expired but it he wasn't done playing,  he did eventually give in to the lure of treats, left his mouse and came in,   Lucy quickly shut the door, we decided to not let them back out until Paul was home.  🐈🐀

I started a Christmas card that is part of Tracy Evans Workshop 121 yesterday,  with all of the steps and colouring each element it took me hours,  I got to the point of wanting to give it up,   by 6pm I downed tools, my fingers sore from fussy cutting!!  Hopefully I will finish it today 🤞

Today I sm sharing the 2nd Thrinchie of the pair, again made using Blueprint Sketch,  stamping flowers in white acrylic and then using pencils to add colour over the acrylic paint, just like yesterday's I used an indigo and denim coloured pencils,  the background was done by spritzing water on a diamond stencil, laying it over the background and leaving it to react with the Oxide ink,  always use a piece of kitchen towel on top of the stencil to absorb any excess water.  I left the stencilled area wet and let it air dry as it becomes more intense the longer you leave it.  A little background stamping and some shading followed be white splatters finish the look.  

They always look better when you see them as a pair! 

I hope that you all have a lovely day,

Love and hugs to all,

Sandra xxx
