I love colour and have so many colourful products.

How do you keep track of what you have?

I bought a pack of 3 little notebooks at the dollar store, put a coat of gesso on the cover, covered that with the lovely silks paint, added some washi tape and it's done, just gotta remember to bring it to the store with me!

It's been so long since I've posted on here - no excuses, just life got in the way. I have been creative and have lots to show for it. Totally loved the weekend away at the wilds with the paperie and now so excited for Dina Wakley in august. love, love her work. I've joined the year long mixed media class with Sara - better late then never! I will post pictures of my projects sometime this weekend.

It's been a while since I've posted the index cards. I am wearing a cast on my hand and it's hard to make anything, but I had lots of time to think,dream and picture what I want to do - I just have to wait 4-6 weeks to actually to it! I am limited to using one hand and 2 fingers on the other.
I've had lots of time looking on the internet and found some very creative people and projects! so much talent and beauty out there.

The idea for this card was lifted from here. Check out the blog - very talented and another local girl.
I used a rough medium, TCW stencil and colored it with watercolors.

used an old pattern for the background and more of the rough medium

very simple index card - paint mixed with heavy texture gel and another crafters workshop stencil, tree mask, spray paint and a colored wooden bird.

I love distress inks when used with perfect pearls mist. Stamped with versa mark and white embossing powder

I like the "do not judge the spots" index card, I might do a canvas of that one. I used course texture medium mixed with black paint and colored between the spot with a mixture of dylusions spray and sunflower perfect pearls spray. Next time, I'll use a more brown color.

Today is a storm day here, lots of time to get crafty with no interruptions because the power was out but I couldn't use my heat tool to speed up the drying process!
