Hello Everyone!
Where has the time gone!!!
I haven't posted since October of last year for goodness sakes!
But it hasn't been for not having any art time.
Don't we all have moments, or periods of time
of needing to replenish our muse?
Well hope you'll forgive me for being absent, and
in the up coming weeks, I'll have some fun
things coming up, maybe a tutorial or two.
But for now, I'll just post what I've been working on
since we last saw each other, in hopes that it will
jump start your muse, ideas, and creativity, as
after the Holiday Season I am sure we could
all use a bit of dusting off the Winter ...
One of my Favourite Holiday Gifts from my Hubs
were these....
A 48 piece set of Lyra Aquacolour
Water Soluble Crayons
and
A 36 piece set of Gallery
Watercolour Crayons
Talk about yummy colours!
And great fun experimenting with both sets too!
And you can use them on in so many mediums, tag making,
journaling, on canvas, I'm so enjoying playing with them!

And I am loving making my own Washi Tape
using my new crayons and some stamps!
I'll be doing a little tutorial in the coming weeks
so stay tuned!!
So I encourage you to try out
Water Soluble Crayons as another source
of creativity!

Another whole project I've been working on
is my hand made journal
Nothing more painful to me is to take out
all of the pages from a hardbound book!
I adore books and reading, but bit the bullet
and found a vintage book that I was
willing to go ahead and disassemble...
No regrets! You know why?
Now I have all the pages from inside the book
to use for other purposes as well as this book
I've made.
I'll explain more in my next posting on how
I'm using the pages.

So there you go.....

and a 'hint' at some up coming posts!

So I hope you'll all stay tuned, check in, and
hang around as there are some fun things
going to be going on here on

Enjoy!!
