Swap Card


Sending in a swap today for LAshby126 on scs.
It's a 3x3 mini card and I wanted to make it simple. After looking high and low for Gamsol and a stump, I found a different brand of odourless mineral spirits and a stump at a paint store! After driving by it a billion times, my brain finally zoned in on the large sign on the store front "WE SELL ART SUPPLIES".
I had some good quality Berol coloured pencils from high school (they seem to work well - I'll have to borrow someone's Prismas and do a comparison).
And away I went! I find this method a lot more controlled than the watercolour pencils and blender pen.
(If you can find 3 words in this post that are spelled the Canadian way, I'll send you a little something...us Canadians, we're funny with our words. You've got until Wednesday the 18th to reply to this post and from the correct answers, which should not be hard after the first person posts, I'll do a random draw. GO!)
Thanks for visiting!

  3. Why did I bother writing these on a sheet of paper: odourless, cloured, and watercolour. LOL!!!BTW, I LOVE Canadians. My great grandparents came to New York and Rhode Island from Quebec. My husband and I have been to Canada 3 times (Quebec, B.C, & Ontario provinces.) LOVE it!!! If you ever want to visit the lovely state of Virgina, that is where I currently reside.
