Here is one of Arielle's images from the Wax Fruit Company... I just love her images. This is simply coloured using Distress Inks with a sentiment from Darkroom Door.
I simply stamp an inkpad onto my glass mat which I then use as a palette and pick up the colour with a water brush. Easy Peasy!
I'm at my daughter's ready to babysit my grandson Seb tomorrow and to take and collect my granddaughter Daisy to and from Nursery. I shall be tired by this time tomorrow! Next week will be the last time I have to make the trip as Sebastian will be starting Nursery on Wednesdays whilst my daughter is at work, from September onwards.

Gorgeous card Chrissie - love your painting of the image (As you've added (TIP) next to your name on your link I'm assuming your tip is the stamping your ink pad onto the glass mat? - great idea).
