Pink and Orange Water Marble (52 Week Challenge)

I’ve chosen just the pink and orange prompt for this week’s 52 Week Pick n Mix Challenge. I wasn’t up to adding in the stained glass or mosaic element as well. I had the idea of doing a plain water marble that I’ve seen a lot of recently. It’s where you don’t drag anything through […] Read more
