Weekend at Carol's

I had a wonderful few days with my friend Carol (aka Ginger) we had a good time thrifting, eating cake, gossiping and making things. We didn't make much, I made a couple of tags, this being one of them. But I had an in-house demo on how to do crackle paint which I'm hoping I can master myself now. It was great using someone else's (giant) stash of goodies! This is my project for That's Crafty this week.

 and a quick reminder that you have a few more days to join in with the current That's Crafty challenge of Black and white and a smidge of colour. You are in with a chance to win £20 to spend instore!

The Window to your Soul

This week's theme on Sunday Postcard Art was chosen by the fab Audrey. The theme is WINDOWS.

I've made two postcards this week.... the first featuring Frida... and a partial quote from Celine Dion (not sure how that would go across with Miz Kahlo lol)

 My second postcard features a vintage nun image.

 Really enjoy using religious imagery in my work for myself

You spin Me right Round

.... that's a blast from the past! lol And it's also the new theme on the That's Crafty Challenge Blog 

I went the whole hog and made a circular tag. You can't really see it but I used texture paste through a clock stencil on the background. And I've used a set of my fave Paperartsy Hot Picks stamps.
