I've had a busy couple of weeks where I just haven't had the chance to do much arty crafty stuff, but I needed a couple of cards for this month, so that made me sit down and do something!
While having a clear out recently I discovered a few pots of texture paste that I have never used so I thought this would be a good opportunity to try them out - luckily they hadn't dried out.

Wow! These are stunning - I love everything about them. Thanks for sharing. Have a good week. Caro x (#27)
ReplyDeleteDiana, as always your work is stunning, I especially love the first card, but that is only because it has "my" colours... they are both fantastic. helen #1
ReplyDeleteThese are absolutely gorgeous! Wow! Have a great week. Dorlene #31
ReplyDeleteI love how you used the texture paste - lucky the haven't dried out - that could easily happen. So much dimension with the paste and the die cuts - I love those swirly snails! Thanks for your visit earlier, Diana! Hope you have a good week! zsuzsa #21
ReplyDeleteY0pu were so lucky with your paste. Now you should use both quickly before they dry up.
ReplyDeleteI always love coming to see you, because you use such incredible and imaginative art, whether it's a mixed media canvas or a mixed media card. These latest cards are out of this world. Happy WOYWW from # 5.
Hi Diana, your cards look lovely, but the close up shots look amazing! Such great detail. Thanks for sharing. I'm a long way from attempting anything like that, I just enjoy seeing how wonderfully creative other deskers are! Thanks for stopping by earlier. My gym space is half a converted garage. Mr M has worked so hard on it, I will have to get plenty of use out of it! Have a lovely week Heather x #12
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful cards and photographs. Its hard to see what is paper and what is shell they all have such well matched natural colouring. #35
ReplyDeleteHi Diana, love the texture on your cards. Just a tip before you put the lid on those jars just spray water over the paste and it will help it to stay damp and not dry up. Of course I will show you the dragon eyes, finished them this afternoon but there are some early ones here too: https://angelacuttingandcarving.blogspot.com/2018/08/woyww-481-whats-on-your-workdesk.html
ReplyDeleteThink you missed these. Have a great woyww, Angela x17x

ReplyDeleteDiana you produce the most fabulous pieces of art, everything you do is a masterpiece.
ReplyDeleteGreat use of that unused texture paste and those colours are sublime.
Thank you for sharing WOYWW have a super weekend Tracey #6
Such beautiful, delicate work, as always - the textured organic shapes provide a lovely tactile background for the intricate flower die-cut, and the underwater scene is magical.

These are so beautiful! Chrisx 22
ReplyDeleteOh Dianna, these are so gorgeous and I love the colours you used too~
ReplyDeleteI just love these. I have a whole cabinet of mediums I've barely used - this inspires me to see if I can get the lids off to see if I have dried husks of product in there or something I can create something beautiful with like you did!
