Summer has come early!

Suddenly the temperatures have shot up in London and today is like a summer day, I was inspired by a flower in our garden and went about creating this.

A little bit more blue.

Hard to get much done at the moment with the Easter holidays still in full swing, but still loving creating things with blue, finished this off the other day.

Happy Easter.

After a cold and windy week by the coast, will post some photo's next week!! We are now back home, so just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Easter!

Seaside

The school Easter holidays start today and next week we will be at the seaside, the weather forecast does not bode too well so not sure it will look quite like this!

Fruit Salad!

This week has been all about fruit. I had great fun with these and the possibilities are of course endless!

Adding a little more colour!

I really enjoyed working on these pieces, the whole process of filling the page was pure joy!

                          

In love with blue.......

Inspired by the MATS Bootcamp project, I was very keen to try out some more blue designs!

Bootcamp-February-wood challenge

This months Bootcamp assignment was to paint on wood any scene you were inspired by!
I initial roughs were to be taken from scenic plate designs! I was inspired by a little plate that I picked up in a car boot sale. Sadly not good chucks of wood in London, well not in the time scale that we had,so I sourced a piece of ply from a craft store instead. This was a great project as it was really open and everyone has create something completely different. You can see this months gallery here  and I'm on page 2!

Scrap Exchange!

Before Christmas I signed up with The collage Scrap exchange! We were given a scrap partner and away we went, I was teamed up with a lovely lady in Detroit! My envelope of goodies arrived soon after Christmas and then the creating could begin. I tried to use solely her scraps, but ended up finding the birds from elsewhere.
It is run as a competition and the deadline has been extended to 15th March I think, as many scraps got stuck in the Christmas post! So I'm looking forward to seeing the winning entry then. In the meantime it was lots of fun and i still have plenty of scraps so i could make another one!

 The above is what I sent!

 This is what I received!

Final Piece!

Something New.....
