Dearest neighbour..

Hello creative friends, 

I hope you are all keeping well? 

What glorious weather we've been having, teamed with a 

couple of creative play days my weekend has been just perfect...

 

I've so many tags with techniques that never amount to anything, 

as my minds been drawn to creating something special for my dear 

neighbour's monumental 100 Birthday this year I've been playing 

with lots of ephemera and stamped TH tickets, adding a die cut 100. 

Funny thing is this stamp set is also SA's 100th Collection...

This napkin image reminds me of two little princesses, with big sis wearing 

the crown. I'm sure my neighbour will be wearing her finest hat in celebration 

of her special day when she receives her birthday greeting from the Queen.

Losing myself in the finer details of hand stitching, buttons and brads, 

butterflies, flowers and lace, I attached a triple ring clasp creating a 

tag flip journal, now all those extra ideas can stay close to hand..

Thank you so much for stopping by today

wishing you all safe sunny days 

Creative wishes

Creative Artiste's June Challenge #72 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes

 

Hello Creative Friends, 

First Friday of the month and time to welcome you 

all to *Creative Artiste's JUNE Challenge #72* 

our theme is always Anything Mixed Media Goes.

This shared mixed media journal page was created some months back, 

during cold dark days with a longing for some warmth and sunshine. 

Torn papers collaged onto the page are painted with my finger, 

as a magazine image pasted on top is over painted 

adding back every little detail.

Tim Holtz Brushstroke flowers #1 are cut from fabric, 

painted and sewn together with a recycled button.

Summer has very much began to show her face this past week 

in my little part of the UK and i've really enjoyed seeing 

the Birds, Bee's and Butterflies embrace it too.. 

Here's a little addition to fill that Summery Sky.. 

If you like to mix up your media, please come and share 

with the Creative Artiste Design Team and join our 

Creative Artiste June Challenge #72 

*Anything Mixed Media Goes*

Wishing you all sunshine 

Stay safe and Creative

 Hello everyone, 

it's been sometime since I shared what's on my work desk, 

@ the stamping ground. The past few weeks have been eventful 

and i've not stepped foot in my crafty space since early April. 

Suspended in time, feel free to look away but it is what it is...

WoywW #626

I've been away caring for my Mother in Law after she collapsed 

at home, found by my Hubby after being alerted by Neighbours. 

She spent two weeks in hospital fighting an infection and umpteen 

tests where they discovered a heart murmur amongst other things. 

Not quite the woman she was when she returned from hospital 

now lots of extra things put in place to make mobility easier. 

 No play time as I stayed to help rebuild her confidence 

but I did manage to complete this whilst MIL minding,

and started a new one sat in the conservatory 

listening to bird song whilst MIL had a little nap.. 

Can I say Thank you so much for the emails 

I think I've replied to you all now 😊

Sorry I missed the 12th year WoywW celebrations 

I hope you all had a good one, i'm sure you did. 

I know not everyone visits/comments but i'll be 

round to see what you've been up too asap. 

Take care & be safe

Tracey xx
