CCC AI Agate

Well, I thought I was down for the count on this one. Thought I packed grungeboard, but couldn't find it, thought I had some fabric scraps along, but no dice. Tried it on some thick chipboard and it turned out like $#!@. Then I saw some hardwood flooring scraps leftover from our project in the back room and decided to give it a go on that. I may add a little to it when I get home to my plethora of supplies, but I'm happy with it so far. I used bottle, stream, lettuce and meadow on the bottom; red pepper, butterscotch and latte in the middle; and stream, stonehenge, denim and eggplant on the top. 2 new Stampscapes stamps for the image.

  7. Wow, Rachelle, way to improvise and create a totally gorgeous work of art! The agate technique looks awesome on the wood scrap. I love those colors, and the way you designed this is so pretty, with the sky/earth/water effect. The Stampscapes images are great, too. I'm so glad you found a way to work with what you had, and you did a beautiful job!
