This is a piece of mulberry paper with images stamped in versamark and embossed. I sprayed using colour sprays and then ironed between two pieces of paper to give this beautiful resist effect. One thing I learnt is that if this sheet sticks to the paper above don't panic, keep ironing and it eventually peels away. I used my encaustic iron which is probably not as hot as a proper iron. I saw this technique on
Sweetpea's blog in her background book.

YES!!! Beautiful Fiona!! You did GREAT!
Gorgeous Fiona. I love that color combination too.
Gorgeous colours!
Lovely bg. The colours are gorgeous. I like how you stamped white over your bg
These colors are to die for! This also works very well on silk--I have made a lot of silk scarves using this technique.
Cheers!
LOVE THIS!!!
