shocker
not only 2 posts in a week- but consecutive days!! i know, i'm as shocked as you are. gasp.
rec my new anthropologie catalog in the mail today, and was completely inspired. i've always been drawn to the turquoise/red combo, but something about the distressed color in the truck -with rust areas- did it for me. go figure, i can't control it, i just have to go with it! here's a couple visuals of my instructional 'project' for the dd event in april. 
i can't show much, but wanted to give a visual of some. *hint/contrast with dye and alcohol ink, which i love the effect i got on the metal
i have been battling with this project for weeks, and this simplistic element came at me and got me going. weird how that happens, -huh? it works. that's the fab thing about inspiration, it just happens and is unpredictable.
the EVENT logo/-check out all the details on dd's site- so great
I love it!!!, but you knew that didn't you....I love that combo too, and also turquoise and burnt orange.....have been organizing my flights to get good deals today...so excited!
