I am so often in awe at how fast time flies by. I can't believe that we're at the end of March already. Here in Calgary that means that the weather is unpredictable. It can be sunny and warm one day and snowing the next. Today is cloudy and cool but there is no snow on the ground... so I'll be happy about that.
I've been trying to use products that I don't tent to grab for regularly... I've been doing some ink blending playing with some alcohol inks too. I struggle with getting messy (isn't that sad?).
I did an ombre effect with some Distress Inks before die cutting the letters.... and of course added my favourite black and white strips paper!
