And then I thought of my cream Maya Mist, kind of an odd color, but very light. I didn't want to spray it, but I thought, why not paint it on?
It glided over my image perfectly! No damage to the stamped ink or markers! I use Memento ink and Copic markers.
I love the light sheen this left on the paper and the colors that I colored stayed true.
I added in a perfect Elle's Studio tag that I cut in half and that pretty woodgrain paper is made by Amuse.
Have a wonderful weekend friends. Luckily we will be having more rain in Southern California, I just love it! Tomorrow I am joining my 2 sister in laws and mother in law at an author's luncheon, Lisa See! I loved her book Snowflower and the Secret Fan. Currently, I am reading her latest book, Shanghai Girls, and I like it even more. Hope to finish it tonight before the lunch. Have you read her books? Would love to hear from you if you have. I will need a new book, any recommendations out there? I adore historical fiction.
cheers, Samantha
