I thought I would start the week of by combining my love of wood, Pan Pastels and my very first
I love this little girl with the wind blowing in her hair!
The wood was nothing special, in fact if you look closely you will see that it was an off cut from a Decking plank . . . a quick coat of Gesso, Ink up the stamp with an Archival ink pad and stamp . . .
then the fun begins getting my hands covered in the most beeeautiful colors, mixing the Pan Pastels with Matt Medium for creamy paint and water for water colors.
It`s also the eP Teams Pick Challenge over at eclectic Paperie and the theme is
