Blotchy Bear

Sorry about the delay between postings. Mum is battling a ruptured disc and Dad is in the middle of cancer treatment, so this small bear is very busy being "Man of the house". Mum and I have managed to get a bit of time to explore new craft techniques. Last week we had our first go at using Gelli plates. When Mum first mentioned this I thought it was something that would go well with fruit and ice-cream, but it is actually a way of making background patterns for cards. It uses a lot of paint and naturally the mix of paint, roller and small bear can only result in two things - great patterns and a blotchy bear. I enjoy using this technique, but am not too happy about the bath that inevitably follows. Click on the image and you will see why a bath followed this experiment.
