Lena Schreijenberg - FLY...
Hi Shazza!!!
I soooo LOVE your challenges!!!! I managed to find some time to play along!!
Something went wrong with the printing of the pictures of my son Liam…. There are some blank spots on the pics but I decided to leave it this way ’cause I kinda like the way they look….
This background is made with the use of washing-up liquid in a little bit of water with red ink in it. Then you blow bubbles with a straw… lots of bubbles!!!! Place your paper carefully in those bubbles and a “print” of these bubbles appears onto your paper!! It’s a bit messy but oh soooo fun!!!
The pink roses are made like this: first you draw “roses” with white oil crayons and over the white oil crayon drawings you paint with coloured ink. Easy peasy…. and a great result!!
The alpha’s and the bird are embossed with blank embossing powder so they really shine!!

For the rest I used a piece of flowered fabric, ribbon, felt flowers, tiny blings, pink lace (big flower), a lace like stamp and puffy paint. The white wing was found on the Internet….
XOXO, Lena
Lena! this entry is fantastic, I love all the little techniques you tried especially the background inky bubbles...looks great! I love your hand inked/painted roses they have come up a treat! The bird and alphas are so shiney they have come up great with the embossing powder. I for one, love imperfections on photos...i like the way your photos of Liam came out too. Great work Lena!! Cheers Shazza

The background is gorgeous, thank you so much for your explanation about the blowing bubbles technique, I'm definitely going to try that. The drawn roses are magnificent, I'm so going to try that as well!!! I don't have coloured ink though, so I'm hoping it will work with paints as well... All in all a fantastic entry!!!
