How about a Giveaway????
We could all use a treat :)


I know I'm a little late to the party,
but better late than never!

Over at Kristin Hubick's 
Retro Cafe Art Gallery

I came across this Fabulous Paint
Called VerDay that is Amazing stuff!!!

I know! It's been around for quite some
time, I told you I was late to the party!
(tee hee)

But it has been a wonderful process working with this paint set and got my mojo back on track after a long quiet spell :)


so just playing around with it to get
my ideas flowing I did this mini canvas collage with my 'Oh Deer' Bubbie


Only a 2 x 2 inch canvas but it was
a great starting point!

Which led me to this.....


Using Retro Cafe Art's 
as the base I just grabbed
bits and bobs of left over pieces from past projects to create my latest
ATC Shrine Box creation....


...loved using the VerDay on it...
So thinking to myself, what else can it do...

and since I took the 
Online Workshop of
Mary Jane Chadbourne's 
1st Workshop at 
Artful Gathering


I decided to start making my bracelets again
using the VerDay as the background and
I'm thrilled with how it turned out!


This one is a size small, but doing up
an assortment of them for my Etsy
shop soon, so let me know if you're
interested!

....and since I was on a roll with the 
VerDay....


...my favourite :)
8x10 Canvas with a bit of 
Itkupilli Graphic and one of
my new Christmas present stamps
by Lynne Perrella


this was the most fun, and I'm 
currently doing a series of these
to go into my Etsy shop so do
let me know if interested :)

So anyway, being almost the end
of January, and with Valentine's 
just around the corner in a few weeks.....

I decided I'm having so much fun
with the VerDay that I needed to share.....

so.... I purchased an extra set 
from Retro Cafe Art!!!
