Attempting

Trying to add a post on my iPhone! and I did it, well I added the picture!  I created this piece as part of the Index Card a Day FB group!  It was an experiment gone awry!  The waves and the scribble lines were done with gesso and I rubbed dioxin purple acrylic paint on with a baby wipe.  I thought that I could get the gesso to act more like a resist but it didn't happen.  Possibly I picked the wrong pigment and might try this one again.


Instead of throwing the card out I decided to act stuff to make is presentable.  I cut out the butterfly images from an end roll of wrapping paper.  Then doodles all over the card with gel pens.  I used glitter, neon, and soufflĂ© Sakura pens. I like this card now, it was fun!
