My Very Inky Fingers ...

Those of you who know me, will know that I do not like messy crafting at all. I'll quite happily fussy cut paper and mat and layer until the cows come home but put inks, stamps &masks  in front of me and I break out in a cold sweat. So with shaking hands and after many deep calming breaths I am proud to say that today not only did I get REALLY messy for the very first time but I also used 17 out of 18 Dylusion inks. Felt completely out of my comfort zone but managed to survive the experience.  Here is the evidence of my inky fingers and photos of what I came up with. Happy Crafting xx

  1. These are beautiful. I either wear gloves or use blending tools with pads or else my hands look like that for 5 or 6 days.

  14. Stunning assortment of tags. They look as if you do stuff like this every day. I rarely get out my inks and paints - mostly because most of my crafting is done on a lap tray in bed - but when I do ink I put a good dose of hand cream on first as a barier, have some Grime Boss wipes at the ready, and use inking tools or brushes. And I still sometimes get inky hands.
