Hipster Chicken Tag

This tag was created for the November challenge on Mixed Media Art Journey.  I can't resist a tag challenge and I love the Hipster stamps so I decided to use one which fits the colour scheme.

A Bookmark Tag

With the current fortnightly challenge on Tag It Tuesday being Book Print, I have found that I am using the tags that I have created as book marks.  This is my second.

Three Colour Fun!

This journal page was created following the prompts for October 2017 on Mission Inspiration.  As you can see, I am a little behind and the new prompt which appears on the first Saturday of the month gave me the impetus to complete the previous challenge.  I decided on my key word first (from the list of five) and once I'd found the quote to go with it, I was off and running.

A Stencilled Tag Experiment

There are several challenges that I've noticed recently which include stencilling as a technique.  I therefore decided to work on a tag to practise layering different stencilled designs, and shall enter the resulting piece in the November Country View Challenge: Stencils. All the stencils that I used are the mini layering stencils by Tim Holtz.

Autumn: The Year's Last, Loveliest Smile: A Journal Page

This page was created for week 44 of Art Journal Prompts.  The prompt was Autumn/Fall and I decided to use my latest bargain buy from Craft Clearance (thanks Nina for the tip); the large pack of Tim Holtz Grunge board (Swirls/AlphasTH92491) which were less than £10 for 26 sheets of grunge board.

Tag: Book Print

This tag was created for the fortnightly Tag Tuesday challenge; this time the prompt is 'book print'.  I decided to combine some of my favourite techniques with one of my favourite stamp sets (Bookworm by Darkroom Door).

WOYWW 439: Visitors

It's been a busy week in the shed!  I had a lovely visit from Margaret last Thursday (Glitter and Glue); we had lunch together and got to know each other better.  It was lovely to see her and she showed off her self taught parchment skills (which are impressive and beautiful), so thanks for visiting Margaret!
Eva is back from Germany and spent the afternoon  with me yesterday on the other side of the desk.  As usual she bought the kitchen sink lol.  She tried out a new stamp set on different surfaces using my Tim Holtz stamp platform.

The other side of the desk.

I suppose that I'd better share my side too.  I came across a bargain or two on the Craft Clearance website; a set of Tim Holtz stamps (Classics #4) that I've been after for a while and the packs of Grungeboard Alphas and Numerals that are standing up in the background.  They were less than £10 a pack and comprise 26 and 16 sheets respectively.  You can also see my 3D pop up box which I have shared over the last couple of days (see HERE and HERE if you are interested).  I also started a new tag which I will be sharing tomorrow.  The stamps on the left are from the Flutterby Collection by Sara Davies. 

To join in with more desk fun, you can find out more from Chief desker Julia on the Stamping Ground.
