Smooshing

 

The ButterflyChallenge is to use inks.

So I did some "smooshing"

New terminology for me - I'd previously referred to it as spritzing on an acrylic block!

Anyhow, it's very quick, easy and effective.

Why not give it a go? There are instructions from a precious post of mine HERE.

Happy Saturday!

It's my eldest's birthday today, but this card isn't for him, I was super organised and made his card last week ;)

This is for a birthday next week.

Most unlike me, making cards a week in advance!

New Year means new Desk Calendar is required!
