Contented Spirit ...

Hi There 

It's that time of the week again when you can find me over on That's Crafty's blog sharing some creativity. 

I've been creating with one of That's Crafty's recently released stampsets (Arty Wings) this week along with another recently released stamp from Aall and Create (Splattered Numbers) designed by Tracy Evans . There's also some of the usual mixed media suspects thrown into the mix: inks, paints and texture paints in one guise or another. 
Heres a quick look at the layered and textured 'Art Board' I have created ...


If you  would like to 'read all about it' and see a few close up pics then be sure to join me over on the blog. 
Would love if you could join me over there.

Hope to see you soon

Now for this evenings post and as always I'm happy and honoured to be a Guest Blogger over on PaperArtsy's blog sharing a project I have created for their current topic: 'Recycled Packaging'.

If there be Light....

Hello Everyone

Hope you are all doing ok, keeping well and staying safe 😷

Today I'm over on That's Crafty's blog in my regular DT slot sharing some creativity.
I have created an Art panel for this weeks post that  features some  of That's Crafty new Craftyboard lightbulbs, Tim Holtz stamps, stencils and distress inks all radiating a positive glow of light! A quote taken from PaperArtsy Eclectica stamp collection ESA02 designed by Alison Bomber seemed (to me) to be the perfect fit and finishing touch.


If you would like to see and read more you are very welcome to hop on over to the blog.  Just click HERE and you will be redirected in seconds both swiftly and safely.  
Hope to see you soon

Do hope you are all staying safe and well and you are 'keeping on' creating? 

As its Thursday I'm over on That's Crafty's blog in my regular DT spot sharing some creativity. Today it's a card that I have created using some of Thats Crafty's multi surface paints with stamps and stencils from PaperArtsy. The stamps I've used are designed by Tracy Scott and the stencil designed by Jo Firth Young , both super talented artists and designers . 

Here's a quick look at the card I have created
