Happy Wednesday!! It is time again to check out all the work areas around the world with Julia at the Stamping Ground. My work area is covered with backgrounds that I made with Crafter's Workshop Templates and spray inks.
Opps! My foot got in the picture. At least my toes look good. LOL I tried to use the template and sprays on a lunch bag (at the top of photo). As long as I used a template that was not too detailed it was okay. But, on the reverse side of bag (not shown) I tried a very detailed template and the lunch bag was too thin and the inks just ran and looked all blobby.
I do like how the brown and blue look together. The orange backgrounds will be great for some Fall themed cards. I will put the background in a folder for future use. I like to keep a stack of background so I can just grab a few when making cards.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at my work space. I think I will be back later with a wedding card.
Have a great day! Love ya.
Karen

ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting the bears blog :)
Looks like you have had fun this week. i love the colours of your backgrounds. x Jo
ReplyDeleteThat’s a very colourful desk you have this week Karen and you’re so organised too. Loving the Brown and Blue together too!
ReplyDeleteI never have anything ready and waiting to be used and usually leave everything till the last minute and then get fed up waiting for things to dry before I can continue. May be I need to take a leave out of your book.
Thanks for dropping by this week and good luck with the candy draw…………whatever it turns out to be!
Happy Crafting!

ReplyDeleteHi Karen thanks for popping by. Love the backgrounds. I like the blue and orange combo. I hope you weren't standing on a swivel chair to take that shot! You are right lovely manicured toes!! Happy WOYWW to you from Helen 5
ReplyDeleteWhat awesome backgrounds I like them all. Thanks for sharing but I am worried at how tall you are to get that shot so high. Ok I saw the toes peeking out, you stood on the chair, now that can be dangerous. LOL
ReplyDeleteHappy crafting
Hi, Karen, thanks for your visit to my blog. I like your backgrounds -- the orange is seasonal & Halloween and the swirls are so versatile. I'm wondering how you got the second color on there without getting it on the first color. . . I have been meaning to do color swatches for my sprays. Maybe I should get some stencils out and do some backgrounds at the same time. ~ Laura #124
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to store backgrounds. Looks like you've been having loads of inky fun.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right - it is the process which is the fun bit:) Mental note made to remind myself of that on a regular basis. Thanks for stopping by, Hugs Buttons #70
It looks like you are having fun. I like the brown ans blue together too. Very forward thinking of you to make backgrounds in advance. I can never find the one I want when I want it!

ReplyDeleteYour backgrounds are beautiful! I never would have noticed your toes :) had to go back and look for them!
ReplyDeleteGlorious inky backgrounds - I agree the blue and brown looks gorgeous (no surprise there given they're my favourite colours!), and the lunchbag idea is great. Yup... very nice work on the toes too! Happy WOYWW!

Oooo! Great minds think alike. I was spraying inkiness earlier this week, hence why I had to tidy up my desk!! I want to get some more masks now and play some more!
