Hi Everyone  and Welcome , 

 Today I'm over o That's Crafty!'s blog sharing a piece of 'Art on the Round' that I've created with some of Dina Wakley heavy body acrylic paints, PaperArtsy stamps designed by Tracy Scott and of course the ideal surface for this piece - a That's Crafty! MDF 6 inch round.

Here's a quick look at my 'Art on the Round' that carries some really wise words: 
'EMBRACE EVERYDAY'.

'Pattern Play' at PaperArtsy

 Hi Everyone and Welcome, 

Tonight, I would like to invite you to join me over on PaperArtsy's blog where I am sharing a project I have created for their current topic 'Pattern Play'. 

It's always such a pleasure to create with PaperArtsy's fabulous products and I am so thrilled and honoured to be one of their 'Creative team' into 2022 contributing to this topic.

I had lots of 'Pattern Playing' fun creating a '2022 'Happy' box that I plan to fill with lots of happy moments, memories, events  (no matter how big or small) that happen throughout my year so at the end of 2022 I can look back and reflect on what I hope will be a box full to the brim with 'happy's'. 


This project allowed for me to create patterned panels to cover the box.....


....along with patterned cards on which to write my happy moments , memories and events. 


To find out more about my Pattern Play 'Happy box' creativity and see more photos you are very  welcome to accept my open invitation (no R.S.V.P necessary) to come join me over on PaperArtsy's blog.

'Make Art Possible'

 Hi Everyone and Welcome 

Apologies for being MIA for a few weeks but 'rain stopped play' for a while so as this is my first post of 2022  I'll start by wishing 
'Happy New Year' 
to you all!

`Hope your's has been kind to you so far! 

***************************************

So my first post of this year is only a 'heads up' kinda post to let you know I'm over on That's Crafty's blog today sharing a grungy journal page that I've created with some of the usual suspects: paint, texture paste, stamps, stencil, washi tapes. 

I had no preconcieved ideas/ plans for the page it was very much a case of going with the flow, following my creative muse and enjoying getting painty and inky again. 

Here's the resulting page 'Make Art Possible'  


If you'd like to read more about my creativity and see some close up pics showing the layers / detail/ texture you're welcome to come join me over on the blog. 
if you click HERE you're on your way. 
Hope to see you soon
