Heart and Soul...

 Hello Creatives 

You would certainly smile if you saw the process that went into 

creating this background. Created over weeks adding collage scraps, 

washi, fabric and lace, stencil scrapes and a wee bit of stitchery.

Limited messy time takes me back to crafting in my kitchen in 

between meal prep, cooking and excessive washing of hands 😊

Life is what it is but I am thankful..

Stamped, embossed and water coloured focal heart..

Shedding light on my chosen words.. born and bred in 

England and very much where my heart and soul lies..

Creative Hugs

Creative Artiste ~ #101 Anything Mixed Media Goes

Hello Creative Friends 

Welcome to Creative Artiste first 

mixed media challenge of 2024. 

Creative Artiste #101 Anything Mixed Media Goes Challenge

My DT project this February started with a stamped 

Visible Image quote on a coffee stained linen scrap..

*When you feel like quitting think about why you started*

Stitched over and attached to a fabric panel I've glued, sewn 

and stained recycled materials, papers and embellishments, lost in 

the art of slow stitch and collage with Winter very much in mind.

The pincushion I made from a fabric gift bag, painted and layered 

with lacy scraps, ribbon and repurposed buttons. It holds lovely 

decorative pins gifted to me by a dear friend.

on the reverse side it's rich red velvet, creamy lace and pearls 

and more of those lovely decorative pins thanks to Anne x

all adding warmth and a touch of romance 😊 

This is the first page in my 2024 mixed media journal.

There's lots more to see from the Creative Artiste Design Team 

we look forward to seeing your February Mixed Media makes @
