Love: An Art Journal Page

The current prompt over on Try It On Tuesday is 'All Loved Up'. I thought this art journal page fitted the bill. 

Rainbow Folk Art

For my final sample with the new Folk Art stamps from Clarity Crafts, I went with my favourite rainbow colours - this time using Archival inks - and used a selection of them on a small card (5" x 5").

WOYWW 870/90: Back Knitting

Welcome to the weekly sharing of desks which is WOYWW (What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday?), the brainchild of Julia, who kindly entrusted it to me to continue after the first 15 years of togetherness.  Please feel free to link up your desk and visit others' - we are a friendly bunch. 

Sorry to hear that Neet is back in hospital.  Wishing her well and that she is back home again soon.

My desk shows some of the new stamps that arrived on Monday from Clarity (by Timestamp Creations).  I spent yesterday afternoon putting them away after my samples were posted off and will have a play tomorrow before Anglo-German club - I am planning a PJ/TV catch up day today.

As you can see there has been a small amount of progress with my knitting.  I have been sticking to two rows a day over the last week in case the pain came back and from tomorrow I will up it to 4 rows a day.

Crazy Critter

As you can see, I have changed the colour palette for the backgrounds on my #dailyatc2026 with the start of February.  I can't believe we are already over a month into 2026.

I will be round to visit on Friday as always.  Until then, stay safe and Happy WOYWW.

Folk Art Circle Scene

For this sample using the new Folk Art stamps from Clarity Crafts I used one of the larger Round Road Masks for the background to create a scene.

#dailyatc2026: First Month Complete

 I have completed my first month of this year's challenge to myself - a daily ATC, following the prompts over on 365 days of drawing prompts and other art and using Clarity stamps, stencils and stickers.  Here are my offerings for the second half of January.

I prepared all the backgrounds for February using alcohol ink on a gel plate (Salmon, Pink Sherbet, Shell Pink).

Folk Art Winter Scene

I decided to combine the new Folk Art stamp sets from Clarity Crafts with one of the Autumn/Winter Backdrop Toppers for this card.

Folk Art Scene on a Pencil Case

I thought these new masks and Folk Art stamps from Clarity Crafts leant themselves to being used on fabric and decided to decorate a plain pencil case that I had in my stash.
