Compendium of Cur...# 3

Here we go with week 3 already in Linda's challenge group. This week we are working on Alcohol Ink Monoprinting. I've done this tech before, but it was called Alcohol Ink Smoosh at the TJ group. I sat here thinking about what I could possibly use to knock my socks off this week, but nothing jumped off the wall and into my teeny mind....so I let the paper and ink talk to me. I luv the colors and I think this stamp from Stampscapes just ties it all together without adding a thing. I am luvin' the fact that I am participating and actually using this FAB book!
Thanks Linda for the gentle "push". hugz.....

You know Gerrie, if it weren't for this challenge, my book would be collecting dust! Your Stampscapes is perfect with your background piece. So tropical!

Oh, Gerrie, this is so gorgeous and it makes me want to go somewhere tropical. Right now. :-)

Your color combo is fabulous, and you're so right about that stamp-- it couldn't be more perfect.

I'm loving the fact that you're participating, too!

Your monoprint is lovely and goes perfectly with the stamp. Only just discovered this challenge but am very thankful for an "excuse" to use my book. x
