March Swap

I decided to use my spare Zodiac cards for this month's swap.

I rather like the way these have turned out ....... considering I only have four distress oxides.  I filled in the Aries and Taurus images with the same colours but using the inks as paints, straight from worksheet to card.  I used the red ink for the background on the Gemini and used a silver pen to follow the lines of the image to show the design a little better ...... then added brown strokes ...... and a touch of grey......

Taurus                       Gemini                        Aries

I love the way these inks can be used to give so many different colours and effect.  I can definitely see why they are raved about on the Web!  Taurus is just one colour as is Aries..... 

I received the following cards by return.

Such pretty papers, decorated so daintily.

Thank you Madge.
