"I dunno, maybe it's insecure."

These are amazing. What are you using for backgrounds?

Well - start with a playing card. Then it's tape I bought from the hardware store used to repair corrugated metal roofs. I think it's called aluminum flashing in your part of the world. (Isn't that a great name for a rock band - Aluminum Flashing?) It has a shiny metal surface, with a sticky tarry black gunk backing. You burnish it down really well and then you doodle-engrave into the surface with a pencil, or - in this case - press metal charm shapes into it to leave an imprint. Then you rub acrylic paint (colours of your choice) over the surface and wipe most of it off. Et voila!
:iconhogret:
It's yours! (Unless you'd prefer the phrenology head with the butterfly?)
:iconmcdermid:
No, this one cause an immediate humorous reaction (now there's a possible title for something) so I'll stick with it. And I'll get some cards up from you to choose from. Of course, if there is something in my gallery you like, I can fashion a card from that. Just let me know.

Wow, literally. :) Thanks.

Wow, thanks so much. What a fewR effect. I use the hardware store for home repair but haven't looked there for art supplies.
