There are many large planters hanging along the walkways along our courtyards, and look what we found in one of them as we were taking Barker out for a walk this evening:
Here is the proud Mama.........apparently she doesn't feel that photogenic these days!
I washed and ironed my latest group of discharged fabrics today, and I really like these. This first one is the muddy chocolate brown one that I first began discharging with the oak leaf and just plain dishwasher gel. The following day I decided to add the turquoise dye. Look how neat it is now:
And look at this one, isn't it cool! Once again, I've got the turquoise dye in the dishwasher gel. Yummmmm!!
Nighty night before my battery dies!!!
PEACE

I like the way the leaves turned out a bit bubbly. I may be trying some dishwasher gel this weekend. How long did you leave it on, overnight? It is supposed to be HOT this weekend (+37 or nearly 100). Will that make it work faster or slow things down?
I was using discharge paste which in and of itself is less bubbly and adheres better because of the alginate. I think it is just the nature of the dishwasher gel and adding the dye - you kind of make abubbly mixture, as that is the nature of dishwashing detergents - right? That is my story and I am sticking to it. I like the bubbly look. i use soft scrub. I will have to try adding some dye to that.
Lovely colors, especially the green. That's "my" color!

Judy I haven't looked at your blog in a week. You have done some nice creations. Love the "cell" Your lastest discharge are great.
I found a nest and eggs in our spider hanging plant. It was a wren. The bluebird eggs on my blog are in a bluebird house in the back yard.
Well keep up the good work.
love
Tina
