Faux Batik

Hi Bloggers.

Well I can honestly say that I was completely bushed yesterday afternoon. 3 days at Ally Pally followed by an early start to do the Craft Clinic and then I had to do my weekly food shop! I hope you managed to catch the Craft Clinic yesterday morning and learnt something! If you missed it, you can still watch it online on the Create & Craft website - just look for Monday 13th April 11am.

Here's a card a made using the Faux Batik technique -

Please have a look at the show online to see how the background was made.



I'll be back tomorrow with a more wordy post!

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  1. Morning Julia, saw most of the show before I had to go out but will watch the rest later today, what I saw was so good, so many tips and techniques, and now waiting for my smoothies to arrive to try them out.

    No worries about the words today, you really must be so knackered, try and get some rest.

    Enjoy your Tuesday everyone, stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

  19. Hello Julia and all

    Lovely card. I will have to try some of the backgrounds you demoed, I also really liked the monochrome one you used on yesterdays card. Thanks for sharing.

    I hope you have a couple of days to take it easy and recover.

    Best wishes

  21. Hi Julia, I didn't see you demo this so will have to look it up. Not surprised you were bushed yesterday after a heavy weekend. I was bushed after Saturday at AP.

  26. Hi Julia

    Wow, you've had a busy few days. I had craft clinic on in the background but also recorded it. Looking forward to watching as I love batik anyway so a faux batik sounds awesome to me!

    Hugs
