Hello Everyone:)
Well it's been an exciting couple of weeks
on my blog with the Co-Hosted Giveaway
with Kristin Hubick
of
Retro Cafe Art Gallery
which both of us enjoyed so much!
So I thought, I would give a little break
to all the Halloween
colours and projects, for all of our eye's
to have a rest,
So, I took on another
Project Challenge
from Kristin and
it's in conjunction with her latest
on Retro Cafe Art Gallery in
Celebration
of her
New Venture with
Land of Enchantment
Debrina Pratt!
I have been a collector of Debrina's Graphics
for a couple of years now, so I was thrilled
to see that she and Kristin have this
New Venture together and
with this
on
You all can Win too!
So here's my answer to Kristin's Challenge:)
This is my
'French Peacock Shrine'
(and as some of you know from pictures of
my Art Room on Facebook, this is right
up my alley! LOL)
( If you'd like to see, send me a 'Friend' Invite
on Facebook/Denise Phillips:)
I made this from
Kristin's Coffee Break Design Kit
(Background sheet to display also one of
Land of Enchantments
Graphics Sheets:)
I love these colours and graphics!
I also used Coffee Break Design's
Arch Trinket Shrine and Fancy Brass
Feather Crowns and of course
Mr. Tim Holtz Hitches as feet!
(Becoming a regular feature on my pieces!)
I so much enjoyed making it that I decided to go
a bit further with these wonderful graphics sheets
and Kristin's Coffee Break Design Kits.
Of course for me, it's all about the Birds! LOL!
Debrina's Graphics of her birds have always
been a Favourite of mine!
But check out those mini crowns!
Teensy Tiny Brass Crowns from
Retro Cafe Art:)
I loved playing with this little kit of Mini Stand-Up Houses,
and my ideas are 'flying'
on how to use more of them!
But until then, 1 more project I finished this
week, which I used some of Land of Enchantments
Graphics, and a Vintage Photo from my own
collection,
a few extra vintage goodies I've collected
from Kristin along the way and
also of course my favourite
This is an 8 x 10 Collage piece I'm calling
'Thrill Seeker'
( I just love that woman's expression!)
I photographed it before framing...
I mounted it in an 8 x 10 Shadow Box frame:)
So there you go!
I've had a wonderful week of being creative thanks
