These are my results for the Glue Resist Background Technique for NGS and Trish Bee. I used Aleene's tacky glue and color box pigment cat's eye ink pads. I spread the glue all over a piece of cardstock with a 'fake' credit card. Next, I took the credit card and cut out triangles which left a 'forked' edge (as shown in Trish's Tutorial). I used the forked edge to create the designs in the glue and let them dry over night. For the next step, I used the ink pad to spread ink over the entire page and then used a paper towel to remove the ink from the dried glue. I think next time I need to use less glue and make smaller backgrounds. These were done on half sheets. The next step is to add these to my Background Techniques journal along with the directions. I will probably not be able to get to that step until after our trip to Antartica. I'm trying to finish up all the swaps and other challenges before leaving so some things will have to wait. Thank for looking. I love any comments. Oops, I just noticed, I forgot to do the second technique. I will if I have time before I go but me thinks it isn't going to happen.
What Trina Means |
 You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality. |
