She Art Girl

After seeing my friend Jayne had taken an on line class with Christy Tomlinson and saw what a fabulous piece of art she had created I decided that I would also have a go.  Here's my first She Art Girl

I've put my own twist on her as I didn't have half the supplies she suggests and uses, so had to improvise.  I did in the end succumb to buying some Mod Podge, which I must admit I do now love, so easy to use.  She also uses lots of rub ons, particularly white ones, which I don't have so on the next canvas I shall stamp in white instead.

A couple of cards

Had to make a couple of cards recently and I've really struggled for ideas, anyway came up with these

The first was for a friend and the stamps are by Dina Wakely, one below was for my son and stamps from The Artistic Stamper.

Both backgrounds were created with Dylusion paints and sprays.  

Shabby Hearts

It's absolutely ages since I've blogged, but not done anything to show, you know how it is, life just darn well gets in the way.  I did manage to make a few shabby fabric hearts, here's just two of them

I knew as soon as I saw the material I had to have it and I adore the wooden buttons.  Sop easy and quick to make, I've already given a couple to friends as thank you's.

September 365 Art Calendar

Well it's that time again, and I've finished on time!  Not even started October though.

This is all organised by the super talented Kate Crane, where you'll find some fantastic artwork.
