Add torn magazine ad fragment\u00a0 &#8211; in this case from the Daily Mail coffee break section!<br \/>\n3. Add &#8211; a\u00a0 thin layer of gesso.<br \/>\n4. Add texture paste through a stencil &#8211; hmm -no texture paste &#8211; at this point I hadn&#8217;t seen Mikes recipe which included bicarb, but i didn&#8217;t have any anyway and have no idea what the spanish is for bicarb either! So I improvised with gesso and talcum powder. Smelt nice! Applied with a finger (no pallet knife) through the stencil!<br \/>\n5. Make marks with rush or comb &#8211; no &#8211; cut a piece of stiffish paper to make a sort of comb and made red circular marks.<br \/>\n6. Adhere book text &#8211; as I&#8217;d used a crossword I decided to use the clues as the book text.<br \/>\n7. Use 2 rubber stamps containing text &#8211; not possible, I only have one text stamp but also used a tiny bit of another stamp with tiny dots so hpoefully it looks a bit like text!<br \/>\n8.Add doodles with a coloured pen. Great, brought my gelirol pens with me so I could do that bit OK!<br \/>\n9. Add a quote, ransom note style. This was fine using the newspaper text again.<br \/>\n10. Add a washi-tape border. Not possible, no washi tape. Ah, cut strips of newspaper headlines and use them!<\/p>\n<p>So, mission now complete with a few adjustments!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pottyplanter.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Mission-Inspiration-Feb-001.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-223\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-223\" src=\"https:\/\/pottyplanter.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Mission-Inspiration-Feb-001-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Mission Inspiration Feb 001\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pottyplanter.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Mission-Inspiration-Feb-001-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pottyplanter.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Mission-Inspiration-Feb-001-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pottyplanter.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/Mission-Inspiration-Feb-001-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Mission Inspiration More a Mission Impossible than Mission Inspiration &#8211; as I&#8217;m currently in one of the less populated areas of Fuertaventura with only lizards for company and\u00a0 golf course to look out on!
