Final Week

So as the final week is here, we are settling in to the school holidays and looking forward to a few days rest. Posting the next few advent images. This challenge has been really good for me and although Im not sure they all go together it has definately pushed me out of my comfort zone.

Pinterest

I often use pinterest for inspiration, I love scrolling through all the beautiful images that you find on there, last week an online friend Ohn Mar did a couple of great blog post about it and so in turn that inspired me to slowly start updating my work on there again and create a few long pins too! You can find me here! Please pop over and say hello!

A minutes silence........today at 11.

Florals

This week has been all about finishing things off and getting files ready, no time spent snipping at all, I really miss that and cant wait to get back to my desk next week, where I can start cutting out a few new creations.
These two are a couple of things that I finally finished, still have one more floral waiting in the wings which I will hopefully finish next week.

Little Peeps.

Some little people with their favourite pets.

Autumn Leaves

Its half term holidays here so think it will probably be a real stop start week! Still inspired by all the leaves around so posting a design I did last week!

Houses

Last week amongst other things I played around with some houses.

Natural Mandala's

Inspired by a creative prompt on a Stephanie Levy course, I have been playing around with some natural mandalas this week just before our tiny garden goes into hibernation for the winter. I also experimented with one out of cut tissue! I am definately keen to do some more!
