Brayered Reflections

By
Hi folks - just a quick post to show you some work I've been doing with my brayer.

The images were made by making a mask for the moon with a post it note and placing two on the paper so one acts as a reflection. Blue ink was then brayered over the top. The reflected trees wee added next by inking up the stamp (Stampin' Up - Lovely as a Tree) and rolling the brayer over the top, it is then transfered to the paper via the brayer and the stamp can then be re - inked and stamped on to the paper to produce the main image.  The Bird on a Branch (S'U) was made in the same way. The mountains in the background were made by ripping copier paper into 'mountain' shapes, sponging and then reversing to make the reflection in the water.
Hope you like them - Jacqueline xx.

    Fabulous brayering - you've got this down to a tee. Especially love the one with the bird on the branch. Very calm and contemplative.

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
