More Blended Images and a mini-book!

I’ve been really messy with glue and paint and glitter …. but I think the results were worth it! I scanned the results, then blended them to create these images.

I was inspired by this episode of “Thursdays with Earl” to make this mini-book. It’s made from a single sheet of 12×12 card and I have covered it with a mixture of papers I have designed and tissue paper!

Making Arti – Mess!

Cupcakes, bubbles and hearts! – that’s what I’ve been busy playing with – and in the process I’ve managed to get covered in Ink 🙂 This is just one hand!

 

The first thing I made was this Heart Book which I covered in home made Bubble Paper.

 

Next I made this Paper Cupcake Gift container. This was inspired by this HOTP template

And finally I made this cupcake mini book. This was inspired by this Project at Scrapbook.com. I designed and created all the papers I used to decorate the book.

 

 Now I just have to fill them all 🙂

Creative on Skype!

My brother and I signed up for a free Skype account each last week. (Free video/telephone link over the internet with other Skype users) It’s really great … but sometimes the video link can be a bit … well just odd! Here’s a screen shot of  a video image when it was playing games:

 

I’m busy getting ready for tomorrow night’s craft class at the moment – a messy one – using paint to create interesting textures on tags to attach to the heart books we started making last class. Hopefully we’ll get the books finished as well. This is what mine looks like so far 🙂

 

What else have I been up to? … playing with distressing ink and spritzer bottles …

 

… as well as string, glue and paint …

 

… altogether a wonderfully messy time!
