Friday Catch Up - 25th July 2025

No Doodlewash again but I did manage to do a Lino Print

I added more details to the bird I showed last time. I've not got the paint/pressure amount right, guess I need more practice.

I've got faces so I'm linking to Friday Face Off

More pages from the Gelli Print Book

The face and hand are cut from a magazine. gem added on the ring.

The cat is a cut out that I did on my cutting machine, my design.

The snail and frog are also a cut out of mine.

The flowers are cut outs. The butterfly I copied from a door hook.

Some of the patterns were made with paper cut outs on the gelli plate.

Friday Catch Up 11th July 2025

I've been lucky enough to have been away again, this time in Crete.  

I haven't done any Doodlewash work at all. But I've still got some of the gelli print book that I have not shared yet.

And I'm linking with Friday Face Off

Yesterday I managed to do a small lino print using soft sculpt. I've altered it a bit since then but have not printed it yet. I get a bit messy with the ink and get it on the back which is not good if I want to send it as a gift card. I'm fairly new to this technique and would like to do more and improve hopefully.

Photo Challenges

Flower of the Day - Peony

Monday Window - a bus at Beamish Museum. I grew up in Doncaster but I no longer live there.

Thursday Doors or in this case a gate in Washington, UK

Pull up a Seat - The balcony of the apartment we stayed in at Crete with fabulous views over the sea.

I'm away again with my two sisters for a few days next week in England, a girlie break.

I'll be back in two weeks. Enjoy your time.
