Even with everything that was going on with Sienna, I was able to collate all the Gocco swap cards, pack them up and mail them out. I’m glad because that would have been weighing on my mind until they were gone. Most everyone received or will receive their cards any day now so I feel safe to show the 2 I did. I wasn’t terribly happy with the first card I did. It didn’t come out as I had envisioned. I brayed the background with a fall color rainbow pad and I guess the colors I chose to gocco print with got a bit lost on it. I even added some Jacquard Pearl Ex to one of the colors and didn’t notice much of a difference. I don’t know if it’s because I didn’t put enough or just chose the wrong color to mix it in since it was similiar. Oh well, at least I tried!

\nI used an old plate of Sienna’s for mixing the Pearl Ex in the ink.

I knew all along that I wanted to do 2 cards. I like how the 2nd card came out a lot better than the first. I got the image printed out at Staples so was a little disappointed that the size wasn’t exact. My files were 4 x 6 and they were about 1\/8 inch off. I don’t know why. I tried to fix one of the swirls with the Riso carbon pen but it didn’t work! I don’t know if maybe I didn’t let it dry long enough before working on it? Hmmmm! I don’t know why I had to be complicated and pick 2 designs that go off the edge!<\/p>\n
