All of these have a layer popped up - I coloured 2 flowers with the floating reinker technique, and based on how each turned out decided which to cut up. I just bought my first Glimmer Mist, since I found it on sale (score!). I laid the roses out on newspaper (after embossing them) and sprayed the glimmer mist until I could see little pools of liquid, same as I did with the water for the other flowers. It dried much faster than the flowers done with the water & reinkers, so I think I may try it again once I collect a few more colours of Glimmer Mist.
I had a scheduled post for yesterday, but now I can't even find it in the list of posts to edit. I think the Internet ate it. I still haven't done anything touristy at all, and that's fine with me - I've spent the night with my mom, then my sister & her man, my grandma, and now back to my mom's. I've been spoiled like crazy, and learned all kinds of interesting family history. Yesterday Connor said to me, "You being on vacation, it stinks." As my mom said, good. I miss them so much, but if he's already missing me, is he ever going to be glad when I get back! Riley's not much for talking on the phone, but I'm fairly certain he misses me too. At least now he knows I haven't forgotten him, which he was worried about. As if I could!
