.... small steps

The past few months have been incredibly painful and yet I still find myself not ready to lift from my respite. I am however, beginning to enjoy creating again.

I do have a few things to show you....

firstly, my postcard for Lunagirl Moonbeams, where the theme is BABIES/CHILDREN this month. Karen has now made this challenge a monthly one but is still offering a prize for one of the lucky entrants.

I've been enjoying using a variety of mediums, on this for postcard for instance Ive used a base layer of an old phone book. then I've added texture paste using an alphabet stencil. then added plenty of layers of distress paint... directly and through stencils and on rubberstamps.

Believe

For a long time, Ive found myself drawn to religious imagery.
Itkupilli on Mischief Circus has a wonderful selection of these.

The theme on SPA is an Anything Goes theme.... here is my postcard

My only crafty Christmas prezzie was this beautiful box of Stabilo Woodys

Amber got a selfie stick so we've been messing around with that

the trouble is...you think you have time

This week's SPA theme is a poignant one, having lost my mum 18 months ago and today being mothers day here in England.

Marion chose the theme and a great challenging theme it is too
