Some cards are already played...

Yesterday was a long day setting up the Blog for Laurel Brooke Designs! Computer programming is harder than designing cards! No more hard work on the computer--today is just a fun day of making more cards!

Today I finished a batch of cards. Some of the techniques I used were spreading stamp ink around on freezer paper, moistening the ink with water from a spray bottle and then I laid down drawing paper on the wet ink. I then used my hands to move paper around and absorb the wet ink. After the paper is evenly covered with ink, I sprinkled rock salt on the paper and let it dry. After making the paper, I use it to decorate my cards. It can be a colorful background or even a center piece!
