MELBOURNE CONVENTION 2011 - Swap #1

While I am away at Convention, I thought I would leave you with some of my swaps and also the Roomie gift I have made for the ladies I am sharing an apartment with, over the next few days.

I have made three different swaps of which this is the first.  There are a lot of different techniques on this wee baby:  Brayering, sponging and direct to paper.  Not to mention, turning a line art stamp into a silhouette.  I have no idea what posessed me to do 20+ of these - the colouring alone took me hours!!  I will also be showing a class in Auckland just how I achieved this look.  Hope they like It.
