Happy News!!! And Make it Magical at Try it on Tuesday!

Hello all! I've missed everyone so much that Avril and the girls are having me back on the design team at Try it on Tuesday.  

I am so excited to be back on this amazing team of wonderful artists! Thanks everyone!

The challenge for the next two weeks is ... 

"Make it Magical"

For this challenge I did an art journal page, and it's not snarky!  First I applied a layer of clear gesso, then I spritzed Dylusion and Tim Holtz inks in a variety of colour to get this magical background. I added some white splatters and writing with a white pen. I then used a stencil with molding paste to create the stars, and colourized them silver after those dried. 

 I then added my little magical fairy girl, some washi tape and a couple word sentiments. 

I do hope you all have time to go check out what the amazing design team have done for this challenge!

Happy Creating!

Try it on Tuesday - Black & White + one colour

 Good Morning all! I made a simple snarky little page the the new challenge at

 Try it on Tuesday

Black & White + one colour (my favourite combo!).

Like I said, this was a simple quick spread to do but it did get rid of some negative feelings I had, so that's good!

Just a stencil , sprayed ink, added a photo, some washi tape and a sentiment.... easy!

Hope you are all having a creative weekend and do check out what the amazing design team has done!

Try it on Tuesday - Make it Colourful

 Good Morning all! It's been a while, but I promise myself I WILL do more art! LOL!  So I just had to do some colourful play in my art journal for the latest challenge at 

Try it on Tuesday

Make it Colourful

Kept it pretty simple, used a gelli print I have had forever, some splatters, some stencil butter in turquoise, my little rebel lady, and doodles. Nothing fancy but I get a bit messy!

Thanks for taking a peek and do check out what the fabulous design team have done for this challenge!

Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers - #253- S is for Summer

 Hello all! It has been a while since I have actually sat down and spent some much needed me time to get to some art... and what better way to get out of my slump than with an awesome challenge from the Sistahs at Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers.

I usually love Summer, but I have to say, I'm glad it's over! Wasn't one of my best ones..... but it's almost over, fall is near, and I am playing!

So, I made an art journal page for the challenge...

S is for Summer

I started out by listing all the things I wanted to get done this summer, added some gesso, some splatters, some gelli print papers I have had laying in my stash for a while, some washi tape, my favourite lady and a quote! Pretty simple, but hey.. I arted!!

Have a graet rest of the summer all!
