I’m Guest Hosting at Mixed Media Monday this week and I have created a little charm bracelet out of broken/recycled jewellery, beads and blue wire and some mini-domino [...]

For Theme Thursday this week, that’s the challenge… I made these three altered domino pins a while back when my new stamps from Third Coast RS arrived. They were in the summer sale and I fell in love with these Asian Beauties – had to have them! I thought they’d be perfect for Feng Shui [...]

That’s this week’s artistic prompt from MMM this Monday. The canvas painted by Diane is so beautiful and she used a brilliant gel transfer too, so it’s altogether my favourite piece of work by her so far!
I have made a fantasy triple-domino, butterfly doll which I’m entering this week. It didn’t turn out quite how [...]

Wednesday Stamper asked that question… and I suppose my favourite things to alter are dominos! Hermine loves to alter clocks and her example is wonderful. I think I like doms for lots of reasons – they’re fairly readily available, even here in deepest Devon I can usually find some somewhere! I love that they come [...]

Wednesday Stamper has challenged us to show our Goth style this week and while, strictly speaking, I’m not very Goth-inclined, I used to sell a lot of Goth jewellery and black candles, etc. at the Sunday market!

This Thursday, it’s all about… creating spooky stuff! Right up my alley!! When I took my Halloween doms, etc. to the Car Boot on Sunday, one of the organisers’ sons checked them out, told me they were way cool and asked me to make one for him to hang on his bike… I think this [...]

Well to be quite honest, when you live with a parrot that talks non-stop and then tells herself to shut up, wouldn’t a silent crow be your favourite bird?! Gizmo is a lot of fun until your favourite programme comes on TV and you just want to indulge in a bit of escapism and she [...]

I found myself playing with fluffy and furry fabric today at the Scrapstore – we’re putting animal/bird kits together so all you have to do with them is stitch and stuff – everything else is provided!! Then of course I had to see what I could find to play with… well, it’s obligatory, isn’t it?! [...]

I’ve been busy with imagery for stamps I want to make and researching stencil burners for this month’s Crusade (I blame Michelle Ward for such a fab tutorial!) and this evening I drilled some dominos – big and small for keyrings and earrings!
I was using some new Cherry Pie Artstamps which I hadn’t played with [...]
