So apparently I'm the last to know that marble rolling has been around for years and it's something that kids have done at school as well as at home. It's a pretty simple technique and after having a play around with a few different combinations of doing things I've worked out I like to let it dry a little and then smudge it a bit with a baby wipe so you'll reactivate the re-inkers to subtly colour your stark white background. If you google "marble rolling technique" you'll see loads of good examples of how this technique is done for card backgrounds! Here's my samples for this fortnight's class.
"No imagination"...
"Fashion taste"...
"Fancy terrible"... (I love this Dorothy Parker quote!!!)
"Die good"...
Last weekend a group of my atc girls attended a camp at Landsdale Farm where we played all weekend and I taught a mini canvas class. Below are most of the canvases the girls completed, only a couple are missing. I have another camp coming up in another couple of weeks where I'll have a different group of girls and am teaching the same canvas again so I'll post those pics as well! A wonderful time was had by all.
