I am Going to Show you my Twinchie!

OK, for those that don't know, a TWINCHIE is a 2 inch piece of art. I was about to enter into the world of Twinchie challenges only to find that the blogger had decided to call it a day due to other commitments.  Then I noticed some kind person had taken over.  Yipppeeeee.

As is customary the first challenges in these events usually start with an 'Anything Goes' task and this blog challenge has not let that tradition pass.  The blog is found HERE. Go have a little look and join in maybe.

So here is my Twinchie.  It is on Stampboard which very handily comes in 2" square pieces (other sizes are available). Stampboard  is a piece of thin MDF like material coated with an ultra fine chalk layer similar to plaster.  The surface can be stained with inks, chalks, water colour paints, it is great for stamping onto and it can be carved to expose the white underneath.  I cold glazed the tile with Diamond glaze which not only brightens the colours but also protects the surface.

Now, it looks like I might be the first one on this challenge so here goes................

As always I look forward to your comments.

Be good, craft with your heart, and enjoy the ride.
