 Hello everyone, 

Desk sharing day over @the stamping ground 

thanks to Julia our host it's week #599 oh my!!

No online time for me last week as much as I love 

ALL your company life rolls that way some weeks. 

Realised this weekend that I'd not made any Christmas cards 

there was a high chance that people may have been receiving 

one similar to the card below if I didn't get a move on 😂

 so here's yesterdays desk with the last of the batch.. hope i've not 

missed the last postal dates for those international ones eekk!!

some online catch ups and a free weekend.. Yay!! 

**Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate**

Enjoy your day.. 

Stay safe and creative everyone..

Paperbabe Stamps Challenge ~ #132 Frosty Feels

 Hello everyone, 

New challenge time over @ Paperbabe Stamps 

This fortnight's theme is Frosty Feels or Cool Tones. 

Use the words to inspire and interpret your designs 

and please come share your creations with us HERE. 

Here's my DT creation and what those words meant to me..

Oh the comfort of a hot drink on chilly days.. 

I've drawn a mug with Robin to fit in her die cut 

and stamped jointed paperbabe art doll hands.

As Autumn moves closer to Winter and the nights draw in 

there's nothing like curling up on the sofa in the 

comfort of your own home with your feet up.

A magazine page painted and fashioned in a style to suit my 

Jointed Paperbabe Art Doll dressed in Vintage Papers 

she displays the Portrait head die and stamp and 

flowing purple voluptuous Celestia Hair. 

Take time out to enjoy the simple things in life..

Hope to see your Feels Frosty or Cool Tones creations HERE. 

Stay safe & cosy.. 

Creative wishes

 Hello everyone, 

Desk sharing day @ the stamping ground. 

Not what i'd hoped to be sharing today, having had a 

busy month preparing for new releases, i'd hoped to have 

started on my Christmas cards but I'm just not feeling it. 

Squished in the tiniest of spaces i've been playing with colour 

& a freebie from Crafter's Companion nice sentiments I must say. 

WoywW #597

Maybe a clean up will help me find my Christmas mojo .. 😂

Short & sweet this week but before I go has anyone else had 

problems commenting on blog posts? I've had awful trouble 

over the weekend especially with embedded boxes, 

changed mine to a pop up to see if that helps...? 

Sorry to anyone I missed visiting

I try not to leave anyone out.. 

Stay safe & Creative 

Hugs Tracey xx

Time to finally release this amazing 

Jointed Paperbabe Art Doll Collection

but before we do let me introduce you to more of those 

A5 pretty papers don't the Paperbabe Dolls wear them well.

showing off her new die cut and stamped 3/4 view face. 

Her hairstyle is one of many to fashion, mix and match 

just like those faces in profile, left & right 3/4 view.

This foxy lady has been waiting so long to be seen, so sad

she missed her Halloween party like many of us last weekend. 

She's demonstrating when used with the jointed Art Doll's 

unique paper brad system it gives a seamless appearance. 

A revolutionary way to construct articulated hinges, giving us 

an alternative option to those metal brads we all know & love.

Creative Artiste *November Mixed Media Challenge* #66 ~ Anything Mixed Media Goes

 Hello Creative Friends, 

It's November Challenge time @ Creative Artiste 

where it's always *Anything Mixed Media Goes*

Come share your Mixed Media Magic HERE..!!

Determined to create something using past left overs and with 

Remembrance day in the forefront of my mind. I came across a 

calico panel obviously an idea started but pushed to one side. 

Along with three Darkroom door Poppies they made perfect 

companion for my November mixed media make... 

Lets get started!!

Glued to a 4 x 7 canvas I extended the scene using 

jute, burlap and loose fibres along with lace offcuts 

and organza strips. Defining the details with the help 

of pencils, paints and inks. 

Layering all three Poppies together, attaching to a 

twisted wire stem, calico leaves cut and painted 

from cotton remnants help design one single Poppy.

The teased jute ribbon highlighted with white gesso 

reminds me of rural fencing against the landscape.

I loved making this significant and personal piece 

with family & friends firmly in my mind.. 

Stay strong everyone *Hope Shines Through* 

For more inspiration please pop on over and see what the 

Creative Artiste Design Team have created and join our

Anything Mixed Media Goes #66

I look forward to seeing your Mixed Media Makes. 

Take care everyone

Wednesday desk sharing day @ the Stamping ground.

Missed last week due to two missions of mercy first to 

release trapped washing mid cycle from Mom's machine 

then click, collect and deliver a new kettle to MIL, 

an essential essential more than ever right now.

Nothing more than mess & remnant's on this workspace.. 

Can't share any new makes until tomorrow 😊 

WoywW #596

so i'll say my thank you's to everyone for my Birthday wishes 

and share this bundle of loveliness I received from Dear Dorthe. 

Beautiful card and mini book displayed open, hard to show all 

the details in these treasured gifts. Wrapped in a co-ordinating 

napkin now saved for a future make. Thank you Dorthe xx

Had some fabulous gifts for my Birthday including 

new pencils (I forgot to photograph) two online courses 

and this bundle of happiness *Sigh* 

Treated myself to replacement pencil sharpeners, 

and finally I just had to have this charming felted mini scene 

created by the very talented Maxine @ Tilly Tea Dance  

Now on my craft room wall.. so calming..

Look forward to seeing what you've all been up to.. 

Take care & stay safe everyone
