Dollops of what, though?
Maybe best left, hmmmm?Seriously, thanks for the lovely comments. Steve, all you do is melt the colours onto a flat tissue (I used olive green, prussian blue and yellow brown, overlapping them slightly, in this one). Then you tear off the excess white tissue and put the bit with the wax on over your card and using the tip of the iron, keep working it onto the surface through the tissue, lifting it up to see what you are doing as you go. Then when you have the desired scene you smudge the edges of each 'rock' etc with your finger and then put in any other details like dragonflies etc with the stylus. Sounds complicated, but really once to get the hang of it it's really quick and very effective! Dollops? Maria x |

Steve As you know I'm a beginner and it is quite easy to do...although mine aren't to Maria's standards the're ok. I've got the book that tells you how to do it, I'll scan it in and send you it if you want...just let me know. We'll soon have Maria panicking give or take a decade or two

Don't reckon so, John!
Everyone here is good at what they do, so none of us ever feel the need to panic! Steve, burnt fingers you may get but....whatever you do, don't go blowing your nose with the waxed tissue!!! ![]() Maria x |
