Especially when I have something I'm avoiding doing, like protesting my property appraisal :O( As for the Citra Solv, I used up a large bottle dissolving the ink in four magazines, but I have enough interesting pages to last me forever!Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06566258201228886795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19180636.post-77960531539898796702011-06-17T06:33:00.853-07:002011-06-17T06:33:00.853-07:00Thank you, Mary Ann :O)Thank you, Mary Ann :O)Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06566258201228886795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19180636.post-43160362979542062452011-06-16T22:40:59.998-07:002011-06-16T22:40:59.998-07:00Wow, what a process!

Your book has so many layers of interest. I love the way you combined the citra solv page with the antiqued copper and the different effects that created.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05473234128433916311noreply@blogger.com
