Day 3 #100DAYPROJECT

I have been inspired by Lisa Oxley and Peg Hewitt lately  and many other creatives who have joined in the #100dayproject

Usually my art journals are extremely personal and I don't share them, but lately I have had a change of mind! I find Art Journalling so good for my soul and a good chance to try different mixed media techniques.

This Art Journal page is my Day #3.

Thanks for stopping by.

DAY #2 of the #100DAY PROJECT

EMBRACE DIFFERENT

Again I have been playing in my Art Journal so I can get some mojo.

This spread just "evolved" - the magazine image was gifted to me by the uber talented  Lisa Oxley - while I was attending a retreat.

I had not used the image, but felt the time was right ! Thanks Lisa!

Until next time, stay calm, and create!

#100DAYPROJECT

A lot of my crafy/arty friends have been joining in the 100 day art project - so I thought I would join in to get my mojo happening again!

This is my Day #1 -  of #100DAYPROJECT Art Journal Pages 

I dedicate these pages to Dolly - the 14year old Australian girl who took her own life recently due to online bullying.

I used Dolly's favourite colour - blue, Stencils from Jo Kinder - Kinder Kreations, Dina Wakley paints, from Scrapping Clearly,  White Out Pen, Stamps, Washi Tape.

Thanks for popping by

KRAFT PLUS APRIL CHALLENGE

Hi everyone

I have done the April Kraftplus challenge which this month is:

Something Old -  is the piece of kraft which I had started a background on about 2 years ago!  I turned it over created a new background and cut it down to my fave 6x12.

Something New- is my new white out pen !  I love to use them and the white does't fade!  I tend to go through lots of them lately on my layouts!

Something Borrowed - is the Seahorse which I borrowed from a broken necklace.

Something Blue is my blue painted background, and blue thread.

Products I used: White Out Pen, Dina Wakley Heavy Body Paint in :  Lapis, Turqoise, Ocean, Kraft cardstock, Pilot Permaball Marker Black - Medium, Tim Holtz inks, thread.

Thank you for stopping by!

Until next time

Have fun and get crafty!!

MARCH KRAFTPLUS CHALLENGE - FUSSY CUTTING!!!

Hi everyone

When I saw Kraftplus challenge this month I thought "fussy cutting" ewwww not for me - but I stepped out of my comfort zone of paint and mixed media and actually did it!!

OK the March challenge is this sketch plus fussy cutting!

I followed the sketch - except I put my title on the left hand side - this is a photo of me as a 1 year old. I created this for my "Book of Me " Album.

I cannot promise that I will be undertaking fussy cutting again any time soon, or use so much patterned paper - but never say never - loved this challenge !

Until next time

Stay calm and create!

Happy New Year - Kraft Challenge

Hi everyone

Happy 2018 - I have been slack keeping up my blogging - so I have made some promises to myself this year, to spend more time creating as this soothes my soul and makes me a happier Mama and Wife!  Also to update my Blog with my creations in 2018 and be consistent.

To start the New Year creations off I decided to play along with Kraft Plus Challenge

This is the moodboard for January:

I was inspired by the colour in the moodboard, so I have created a 6x12 page.  I used Kinder Kreations 12x12 Stencil, Pilot Permaball Pen in Black, string, black cardstock, staples , Tim Holtz film strip and an Australian penny.

I have journalled around the edges of the page, which is something I intend to do more of  on my pages this year.

Thanks for stopping by.

Love
