Al Fresco...

...corrrr blimey... those Fresco Finish paints... lusciousness in a bottle or what!! Now, I have had a few colours to play with ... and I am soooo lucky because Wendy from The Stamp Attic sent me some more to play with for my DT thing. They arrived yesterday and I got playing straight away... trying different colours with the Crackle in the middle of them... this one is a rather lovely combo... Little Black Dress and Moonlight... subtley mauve... like I said... lush!!!


I love that Sewing Room die... you know, I said when I first saw it that I would never use it and wouldn't need it... ahem... famous last words... thing is, I say that about loads of stuff and end up having to have it lol



Right... time to get cracking on more crafty stuff that is waiting attention... you will be pleased to hear that my room is still impeccably tidy.. I have been clearing up after each make...oh and I have even been washing out painty Cut & Dry foam... and paint brushes too!! I know! Whatever next?? Baking?? No, that is taking this domestic goddess malarkey one step too far rofl... Anyways... thanks for looking... have a goodly Friday! TTFN...

Love your tag and that dress form is so much fun to play with. I have never seen Fresco paints here. So proud of you for keeping your room tidy. I am doing much better at mine also.

Yes, I said that about the dress form too, so far (!!) I haven't given in, but..... if I have the die I will need the stamp set and ....
Love this,Hels - have a great weekend. May sort out my stamps (reorganise them) this weekend...

Hey Hels...very cool dress form. Love that crackle look!! Are these Fresco paints in the UK only? I've only recently heard of them. Tell me more...are they acrylic/water based? So curious about them... I love your piece! It's awesome! <3 Candy

Yep, know what you mean about the paints and crackle - they are great. I luv how you have used them with the sewing room die. Gorgeous work again Hels.
Enjoy your weekend.

Hi Hels, love those colours, I haven't got those two, they are fab. I need to increase my collection, methinks. Fabulous tag, I love the dress form, and all the bits and bobs to go with it.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment today, Judith xx
