Helloooo!

Thought I'd share a bright little number to match the bright weather outside! An oldie in the cupboard- made several month's back. It's based on the Ting Tings song of the same title. We are very fond of pet names in our house- but at one point Emma wasn't! You could call her anything but Emma! " That's not my name!" she'd pout! So that's how the title came about- and the black strips across the page? ingenious! Black bin bags! I'm not convinced it archival safe- but they look all punky and fun so who care's! I have the photo on file and this page was all about fun! hope you like!! Lx

My 1st IACW post!

I set myself a challenge

....the other week. How many different ways to use a ribbon on a layout. I managed 3 techniques, my favourite being mummifying chip board letters! They didn't match and were quite big so I wrapped them up and tie knots here and there- and it turned out quite cute I think! Keep and eye on my side bar as I'm going to be adding links to all my extremely talented DT mates from it's a creative world! the blog is now posting a regular piece of inspiration- daily!

It's a creative world

And I'm part of it!! How cool is that? A new group of creative types are joining some of the original team to keep you inspired on lots of creative levels. I'm really proud to have been invited and hope I can do as great a job as they have done previously. So now I need to go and admire all the blogs listed there for my new teamies. Fancy following me- it's right here!

Little Miss Messy

A recent page of mine- but old photo's that have ever been used. I couldn't resist trying to get some of the mass on her onto the page! I've smeared acrylic paint onto the acetate from behind. Had a bit of fun with the title- I found the text in a magazine, so using the tubes of stuff for creating outlines on glass painting, I made an overlay o the acetate. Just seemed perfect for the pictures!

grave work

Unreal! One day it's September and then all of a sudden it's mid October and I'm making card coffins! My most spectacular invite yet! A scroll wrapped round a severed fingered and delivered in a coffin! Perfect for a gruesome pile of 7/8 year olds! have gone back to a hallowee themed 8th birthday for Andrew- a tour of terror followed by a frightful feast and being scared shrekless( dvd!) Will have to share some photo's!!
