Creative Chemistry Day 2

Excellent Marianne & Monica!
Great idea to try the techniques with different brands of ink.

Thanks, I have a limited quantity of any manufacturer's inkpads so I have to use others to try some of the techniques. Like today.

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the last person on the planet who didn't think the drying between layers was important. It does make all the difference. I'll take a photo and post mine tomorrow. I'd rather share here than do the linky thing at the class gallery.

I'm fortunate to have taken classes with Tim in person, so I knew this! Ahhh, the days before he was quite so popular. He would come to a local stamp store (sadly closed) and ofcourse was on the three Arts de Mer cruises I was lucky enough to attend. at the store we all had our little craft irons - even back then he brought EVERYTHING you would need for class!

I had classes with him at CS Retreats

Nice to start with familiar techniques. I like how my 3rd tag almost seems like a reverse of the first; didn't even realize but I used lighter versions of basically the same colours and that's what happened.

everyone has such pretty tags

[mpizzazz]

Those are all beautiful, Keitha!

[nancine]

here are my first three tags... slowly but surely I'll get them all done!

[Monica]

Lovely, Nancy!! The right-hand one is very vibrant... I need to do that one again with brighter colors!

[pamcook]

Very nice!
I love that wheat stamp, too.

[mpizzazz]

Those look great, Nancy. Those are the kind of bright colors I want.

Finally got to play with Day 2, here they are I really think they came out muddy, but that's because I need more inks! I need brighter colors! Off to Micheal's this weekend

The flower didn't come out too well in the pic, think my flash makes it look like it's not there, but it is

[Monica]

Very nice! I like the muted colors, although on my monitor that first tag looks pretty bright-toned!

[mpizzazz]

I don't think they look muddy. Of course, it depends on the tilt of the laptop cover if I can see the flowers or not. They look great when it's tilted back.

[pamcook]

Very nice! I like the soft colors on these.

I keep looking at the Dylusions colors and I know I need a few of them. I'm saying I don't need them all but...
So I completely understand when people say they feel they need "more"!
