Ahhhhhh, it feels good to get up this morning and stamp something Fall-ish. I decided to throw caution to the wind though and add the non traditional Pink color, Melon Mambo in my background. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it. I hope you do too. This tutorial takes you on the journey of emboss resist also. Give it a try!
Before I start the tutorial however, I want to announce that I have added two new destinations to my Brayer Workshop Calendar. I will be teaching in Sturgis, South Dakota and Ottumwa, Iowa. Hope to see and create with some of you there. 🙂 For a complete list of Brayer Workshop locations and dates CLICK HERE. My very next stop is in Milton, West Virginia.
