oops...yet another addiction

Morning folks...believe it or not I've managed to acquire yet another addiction for these blank tiles and am seriously feeling the need to get some more....lots of fun to decorate and because of the size you can go absolutely wild adding lots of different bits and pieces giving great touchy feely texture but a word of warning it can be a real messy job....mega scrubbing required yesterday to get the glittery gunge out from under my nails and the inky hands...well that required a hot shower and shampoo job to get them back to looking skin tone again.

  11. This is stunning Kath. I can see how you would have a lot of fun making this. Would have loved to go to Alford on Sunday but unfortunately I've got something else I need to do. Maybe manage to get to Pink Ladies sometime!
