Published March 31, 2011 | I did a desktop this month without a calendar, I so hope you enjoy it!
I wanted some poetry, and it seemed to all flow with theme. It has been pouring here in California (it is Spring time) and John Keats is always a good thing to read.
I used some of Tempest-Tossed (previously released) and Silhouette {Collab w/DeCrow Designs} that was just released last night:

I am off for Vegas also, so will be back with pictures of the class and Tangie Baxter and more! Enjoy the end of March!
Free Rocks and Tutorial to Put them in Your Own Bowl!
Published March 16, 2011 | After the much sought after techniques I used to make my first rock layout, I’ve written you a tutorial with links to the resources to get everything you need to make YOUR OWN including a ROCK FREEBIE by Tangie!
Here’s the bowl of rocks we’re going to be making!
Now pay close attention to the shadows and lighting. This is of the utmost importance. Watch the light. I turned my bowl so the light was coming from about 10:00 on the scale or 120 degrees in the angle on your shadows.
2. Extraction
3. Effects
Then added a nice shadow with a bit of a glow in my fx panel:
Next I used the “BAM BAM” technique from the Art Journal Caravan to fill my canvas with rocks, but you can do it however you want to get those rocks on your canvas.The “BAM BAM” technique is not top secret, but a fun thing to learn on the AJC2011 in the forum, on one of the many FREE tutorials included with your journey.
2. Place the Rocks in Position
Click on the rock of your choosing. This way the text will be in the layer right above the rock. For shiny rocks and to get the engraved look, I then applied Paula Kesselring’s FREE burning action. I had to lighten the opacity and play with the actual colors of the bevel and shadows to get the look I wanted on each rock, and again I say, play and make your eyes happy with your heart.
For the non-shiny rocks; use the same directions, click rock and add font layer above the rock.
