Never perfectly flat but almost. <br />Love the eye...so real looking. The idea of the tears flowing down with words is so inspiring. Enjoyed my visit today.

I've heard that wetting the wrong side of the paper will help with the curl; although I've never tried it.<br /><br />Love the wall color too! The garden photos are great and I noticed right away the okra. I love okra - fried or pickled.<br /><br />Thanks for answering my question (SU demonstrator). I need to go through my ink pads to see what refills I need. They are old so it's possible they are no longer available.<br /><br />Happy WOYWW<br />Peace, Kay (65)505whimsygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16594635228441769910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765964504199008697.post-18168658547883924222014-07-23T12:28:14.464-05:002014-07-23T12:28:14.464-05:00LOVE your eye painting.

You are quit the expert eye painter! It is a great idea for a page too. I enjoyed the garden photos, made me wish for some time in my garden, which is just a back patio of potted plants but is in disarray.

I often find paintings tend to curl so I have layers of cartridge paper under my glass mat (which you can probably see on my desk) when the painting is dry, I place it inbetween and leave it there for a couple of days and it works perfectly at flattening it.<br />Happy crafting and have a great week, Angela x #44Felix the Crafty Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14275183935291510409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765964504199008697.post-67904984102956616132014-07-23T11:25:07.555-05:002014-07-23T11:25:07.555-05:00Hi Vickie

It sounds as though you are getting a lot of positivity from that book you are working from too. We have been enjoying temperatures in the high 70s for a few weeks now ... so unusual for here and definitely to be enjoyed while it lasts - hopefully for the duration of the Commonwealth Games. Wishing you a great week.
