Two new pages I did today (24/03), grouping them together.
On these first two pages I have not used distress inks as that is the initial idea of a glue book just to use paper.
On these second two pages I have used distress inks, but I'm going to get used to using it very lightly, as I think it is too dark here.
If you are interested in seeing more there is a Flickr gallery here.
I had a question from Dallas over the antique Bible I found. My photographic memory wasn't as good as I thought, as the date is 1793. I had left it at work at the time of writing so couldn't reference it. From time to time people give up boxes with old books in them, usually from Christian authors, or just Bibles and as I was tidying up my eye caught the date of the Bible as the 5th of August is our son's birthday and we have praying for him since he was born to walk in his God-given destiny - a prayer which we are still persevering in! It just struck a cord with me!
Have a nice Sunday.
Jacqueline, you are a natural! These pages are so beautifully done. Pretty soon, your scrap basket will be empty. It's a great way to get rid of all of those little pieces, isn't it?
