Creative Artiste #129 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes Challenge

Hello Creatives 

First Friday of the month so it's time to share a project for 

As another heatwave is set to melt the UK i'm taking you 
all to the beach today.. not literally of course 😊


On a summer sky painted background I scraped sand coloured texture 
paste making feet impressions in the sand by pressing in stamps 
from the Inkylicious shoreline stamp set whilst the paste was wet. 

When dry I stamped and embossed the shoreline, adding paint 
dots, dabs and flicks to the sky to enhance the atmosphere.. 


Embellished with coordinating lace, sequin trim and machine stitch 
top to bottom, I pondered for a while unsure what word or quote to 
pair up with the scene.. 

Having found a bag full of beach bracelets in a suitcase that 
my Children used to collect whilst on holiday the word 
Tranquill came very much to mind... 

**Happy Days**


Come dip your toes in and share your Mixed Media creativity with the 

Take Care everyone

Simply Lovely Again..!!

Hello Creative Friends 


Another Summertime show of recent Alison Bomber stamps by 
PaperArtsy.. The Hydrangea is one of my favourites and in 
real time they lap up the sun even during a heatwave.. 


Stamped and embossed on a watercolour tag scrap I coloured with 
watercolour and pencil stamping text to fill the bare background. 

With a craft knife I carefully cut around random leaves to lift 
and add dimension popping dots of glitter glue in each centre 
as that's where the Hydrangea flower magic really happens 


Co-ordinating buttons and lace embellish with a trio of machine 
stitch colour edges it all.. simply lovely again 😊

Stay safe & creative everyone

We Love Stamping July Challenge ~ *Summertime*

Simply Lovely...

 Hello Creative friends 

It's been a while since I've treated myself to newly released stamps 
when I saw the Paperartsy sets from Alison Bomber I couldn't resist. 

Just look at this delightful rose, stamped and fussy cut.. 
The roses are really in full bloom this Summertime.


On an Aall & Create die cut tag filled with offcuts, torn 
papers and washi there's paste pushed through a TH flourish 
stencil brayered with vanilla paint and random text stamped 
around that texture. Edged with gold I find it's a go to 
colour combo of mine, a vintage favourite that loves 
a tickle of pastel blue or pink.. 🫠


Stay safe and take care especially if your dealing with 
yet again another heatwave like myself here in the UK..

 Happy crafting 
Hugs Tracey xx
