Hi Pippa
Thanks so much for putting up this link, I've been wanting to do this technique for ages.
Love the colour combo's you're getting here.
Thanks for dropping in on my blog, I'm really looking forward to trying out the Dremel.
Thanks too for dropping in on my DD's new blog, she'll be delighted to get your feedback.
Don't even consider getting away from the purples - you have some fantastic pieces here, and thanks for the link to the crackle dyeing - very helpful.
