Journal pg 2.

Here's a pic of pg 2 in my journal. I really am enjoying working in my journal. It's nice making art just for me...

My new love....

Today I started my art journal. My mum got me & the kids sketch pads so we could do art together. I have wanted to start journalling for ages so I got all my supplies at the kitchen table and got the kids to put their aprons on. We had one objective.... Make some art! No rules, just do what you feel! Kids loved it. I loved it. I love making art & I love spending time with my kids. Time well spent in my opinion!
Here's pics of the front cover & first page in mine. I also added a pocket on the inside of the cover to store collage cutouts etc.. Kids didn't want to show theirs yet....

Card for Suzi's friend...

My friend Suzi asked me to make her a card for her friends wedding. I scanned the invite into my laptop so I could use the butterflies from it as part of the card. I also used the poem that Suzi was reading at the ceremony. I love using serif craft artist for cards like this. I decoupaged  the butterflies and added a little irridescent glitter to give them lift. Also used it on the background.

Made for Auntie Jean.

I made these for my auntie. Hope she likes them!

Made for Helen.

Just a quick post. I made these for my friend Helen. I drew my version of her beautiful cat! Her pressie was a bag charm in a handmade box.

Recycling at its best....

Here's a few pics of some pieces that I've finally finished! The phone holder was made for me by my daughter Lydia, at school. It was just raw wood and plastic when I received it, so I spruced it up with permission! She was really happy with the finished item. The little suitcase was originally a Hello Kitty vanity case that was my daughter, Freya's. The pot was a cleansing pad pot! Recycling at its best!

Wire work

I've not been doing a lot of creating due to the summer hols, but my mum, god bless her, offered to have all 4 monsters for me today! So me being me, decided to have a making day/ chillax day!
I made a wirework  pendant for my friend Deb ages ago but it inspired me to have a go at more wirework.
The heart pendant is Debs.
