Gelli Mono Printing with Distress Inks
What an interesting experiment this was! It didn't take long at all, wasn't messy and best of all, it was FUN! It got me out of my head and control freak mode and allowed me to play, to be curious, and focus on what I was doing in the moment.... Continue reading

Rise and Shine and Delight | Part 1

Is your name Leonard Cohen?

Mandy - thank you so much for your comment. Bluebird and I both love Paris too. Angelina's was a treat I would recommend to everyone going to Paris. The hot chocolate is made the way its meant to be drunk. Let us know when you get to travel to Paris again - we would love to follow along with your travels if you post on social media. xx FaerieWings
