My re-drawn pictures now that chipboard is painted

Yep I sat a little while redrawing the picture I lost when I painted the chipboard. Its okay I am satisfied with what I have done, but now I have some new goodies to experiment with my pencil drawings



I have never used Modge podge before, So I thought this trial pack was just the thing. I bought it from a company called Quickdraw Supplies Limited. wwwqdsupplies.co.uk The set was £9.34 including VAT with £2.00 shipping. You get 5x 58ml which consits of Sparkle, Gloss, Matt, Outdoor and Paper. Mmm think I will have a play first.

the next page

The next page I painted chipboard white, stuck some paper on to it, (leaving a space at the bottom so I can insert journelling spot and photo mat) I painted edges white then embossed swirls in holographic embossing powder, then high lighted it with pink and brown distressing inks.

I wanted it to tell how I felt right now so I stamped and inked the words to remind me, I hope I can look back on this year as the beginning of my journey back to who I really am.

I have not stuck anything down so is liable to change lol

the artist's escape

last night I was feeling arty, I had come upstairs from crafting, my body was sore but I could not rest so I started to think where my family was right at this moment in 2010. I thought I would document it, so i started with my feelings etc and started to draw.
Right now I just feel like I am living half the life I should be leading. Inside I am okay but my physical shape is poor, I have bad eyesight and a body that aches, but in my mind i see beauty, I want to recreate that in art
Dont know how I will paint it, any ideas?
NOTE TO SELF:

The idea I had of drawing on the chipboard
painting it white then painting in the lines kind of flopped. the white acryllic was better than I gave it credit for and covered the lot.
so I had to draw it again, I plan to use a copic marker and acryllic paints to colour. watch this space

Dirty project

ok its been a long time, mostly on my utube channel, been out of action due to recovering from my surgery. Been watching people do art journels and decided to try out a lot of my mediums that I have bought and never used because of fear into my next project.
okay here is the cover, its not finished yet have to stamp the text on the white bits will update shortly.

wish me luck





Okay here I have taken it as far as I could, I messed about with grout acryllic paint, desress inks and loads and loads of glue! Really pleased with my new stamp set only six pounds and sentiments are beautiful

Hi I sit with dread, what can I make of this toilet rolls. I need to make a mini for valentines for my eldest daughter, she likes vintage but also romantic so not too much grunch mmmm.. lets see.

I have started by painting the sides with metallic tan paint by Anitas, but its end up looking like matt gold not bad what do you think

Contemplating Give Away

I have not been a scrapper for long, but have really enjoyedbeing a part of the crafting community on utube. Last night I had my 100 subscriber and I dont know what to give away, from uk so haven't got up to date products, I really do not have a stash at all so I would love to have any ideas
