Brand New

Welcome to my brand new blog! I felt I needed to have a fresh start with it all.
I will be showing my DT cards but first take a look at this...... 


Make sure you check out the Polkadoodles Challenge Blog. We are having a blog hop over there on the 30th March! There is some yummy candy up for grabs!

Now for my DT cards.
First are Polkadoodles, which were made using the new Candy Doodles CD Rom.



The next two are for Glitter Geeks Boys and Girls challenge.



A friend of mine has just started a new job, for one of her presents I wanted to do something with the Tudors on. She loves the programme and the history and has gotten me hooked too. This was my second attempt at a candle. I printed the image (taken from google) on to tissue paper and then heated with a heat tool.


I finally gave in and bought the Encaustic Wax kit from c&c. This was my first attempt......
It doesn't look like anything specific, but when you do look at it you can see shapes. What I love about the top bit is the way the colours have blended in the waves.


Here are a few more........
I love this one, the colours are stunning and it almost looks like an under water cave!




This one I am quite proud of, kind of looks like a sky with the sun shining down. 


I thought this would be quite daunting when I first got it, but its fun to do and the colours and shapes are beautiful even if they do not look like anything. I think thats part of the fun, they can be anything.
I shall practice more soon! :)

Here are a couple of cards with my new Tiddlyinks digis.
