Rock n Roll!

The Script are my inspiration for this page… for Wednesday Stamper’s challenge this week. I’ve read about them and watched them on TV recently and then I found this pic of the lead singer, Danny O’Donoghue, in a back issue of Marie Claire mag… and the page was born! It’s another one for my Alphabet [...]

Fashion-ista?!

Wednesday Stamper – “Fashion” is the theme set by Belinda – what a great inspiration she is – funky and wild as always!! Well I’ve been doing a lot of painting lately, working on new things for Ten Two Studios and Marie (Antoinette) has also been on my mind. She’s everywhere isn’t she? Lol!
So here’s [...]

Faerie Fay!

Fairies is Wednesday Stamper’s theme this week. I don’t like fairies and I don’t think they’re as sweet and angelic as they’re often painted. I have referred to this before and I stand by what I wrote then!! I think they’re far more likely to play mean tricks on you and give your hair a [...]

“Clearly” Green + Purple!

Wednesday Stamper’s theme this week is to show how we use a combo of green and purple. I took 3 Clear Base ATCs from Ten Two Studios, coloured them with 2 shades of Alcohol inks + a little copper mixatives and then stamped part of the Crafty Individuals large Swirl on one corner, using Olive [...]

Under the Sea…

That’s this week’s challenge at Wednesday Stamper… here’s an ATC I made this evening using a seahorse stamp by Inca Stamps, which I’ve had for a couple of years. The background is a painted paper towel adhered to cardstock, plus a bit of painted text page on the left.
The column is a RAK piece from [...]

WS and TT!

Abbreviated because I’m tired, but happy to be back in the creative loop, as it were… I made this card for Wednesday Stamper’s “Orange” challenge, using an image from Ten Two Studios “Orange Things” sheet. It’s a small card for a friend’s birthday:

Using another image from the same sheet, I created this birthday tag for [...]

WS – Transfer

Wednesday Stamper invited us to show image transfers in our artwork today and I used a puzzle piece which I wasn’t happy with as my base. It has been covered with newsprint, painted and over-painted with silver acrylic paint. I used an image from the Orange Things Collage sheet at Ten Two Studios.
I first tried [...]

Spring Greens….

Haha!! Spring greens – curly kale, no!! I love kale as a veg and I’m just joking. Wednesday Stamper’s theme this week is Green and how we ’see’ it as a colour… how we use it in our artwork. Here’s a 6″x4″ canvas board collage using one of the larger images from the Green Things [...]

Wednesday Stamper

Use ‘hearts’ in a different way for this week’s WS challenge - not as Valentines or love hearts… here’s an ATC featuring that lovable rogue Harry again (Home Impressions Victorian Plate). I used heart sequin waste on the background – distress ink, clear embossed.

Bags (of joy!)

Bags is this week’s Wednesday Stamper theme and there are some gorgeous creations to be seen! I have this thing for fabric, quick-makes and stamping on fabric. When we went to the Craft4Crafters show last week, my mate Debs gave me 2 huge bags of fabric to play with… a bit cruel to do that [...]
