In the background you will see a folder containing part of my scrapping from the Mega Crop I attended on Saturday. I am determined to finish it before I forget about it. Here is a close up of my journal. Love that texture paste! Will have to do some more work shading that tree, it looks a bit flat to me. What is the verdict girls? Carry on with this, or stick to what I know?
Thought I would share some of my cards. I recently got some more Mo Manning images and they were just too cute - I had to use them immediately. The papers for the first one are from a paperpack that came free with a magazine. The border is a MS punch and the ribbon and charm from my stash.
The next one is a lot more colourful. I used papers from my scrapbox. The cardstock is Bazzil, the ribbon and cherry charm are from my stash and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.
The last is another one of Mo's images (I just adore her images!) Its called 'Newly hatched" The papers are all from my scrapbox and I sewed them onto the background. Cardstock is Bazzil and the ribbon and the flower are from my stash.
All of these images were coloured with my beloved Copics of course.Hope you all have a great week.
Before I forget, did I tell you I am going to Chicago in July? My VISA was approved, so now its just waiting for July thats killing me.
gorgeous cards, if at first you do not succeed, keep trying, but it looks like you have done a great job. Thank you for sharing. Happy WOYWW 101! Not long now until Happy WOYWW 104 - 2nd anniversary with the PIF. All the best until then #2

Wow Chicago - how exciting! My advice with the book is if you are enjoying it then carry on if its a struggle then dont as you wont like it anyway so put it to oneside and come back to it another day - to be honest though I think it looks fabulous and you should carry on with it but go from the heart and whichever way your creativity is taking you.

Beautiful work of ART. I too Love to alter the way things look ( that sounds awful, but you know what I mean) .. and this is just beautiful x
ReplyDeleteOf course you go on with the journal - it looks gorgeous! I like the colors and the tree. What exactly is texture paste? Is it like modeling paste of heavy body acrylics? It looks like something I want to get my hands on.
ReplyDeleteLovely cards but the journal page is fantastic. Love the bright bright colours you have used. Keep going - journalling can be so much fun.
ReplyDelete(I used my friends Copics in America - loved them)
