Ello Peeps
Today i'm here to share with you a couple of cards I made for this weeks Stampotique Designer Challenge
The brief was to use 'Pink, Purple & Black'
So I set to work with the paints and came up with these..

I even dusted off the sewing machine for the top one to add some pink stitching.

I used MS paints, and found objects for the background, then just added a bit of stamping and the stampotique figures and I was finished.

I've still got got around to making my Timmy tag..maybe i'll do that today!

366 Challenge!

Yep March is upon us already...Only 25 days to my birthday!
{cards and gifts greatly received hehehehehehehehehe well a girl can try can't she}
I had actually forgotten the date till I saw a fellow crafter's 366 challenge page up on FB this morning, so I have spent most of the day working on my page, Having fail after fail I have to say I am somewhat disappointed in my efforts this month, It just wouldn't go right..
I finally decided to give up and leave it where it was as the more I faffed the more it was going wrong,
Don't you just hate days like that!
Anyways enough waffle.. here's the page

I'm not gonna go into how I made the page as I can't remember there are so many layers lol
All I do remember is that I painstakingly diecut 31 mini doilies.

You may be able to tell that the left of the page had black outlines with some of the dots of the doilies coloured in, well I hated how it looked so I slapped a load of gesso over the entire page to tone it down.
Guess today just wasn't a good day to journal.. Oh well, you can't win them all can you.
I also forgot to photograph my feb page, so i'll try and remember and add the pic later.
I'll be back over the weekend with my march Timmy tag.
Till then Stay Inky

Take A Word!

Me again {well come on who else would it be}
I had so much fun doing my 366 january page that it reminded me I had Kate's dvd still to watch..
I only managed to get half way through the first DVD because as soon as I saw her laying the paint on paper I was in my craftroom faster than Speedy Gonzales!
I took my inspiration for the theme from mondays Take A Word challenge
which was 'NEW YEAR'

I chose the same sort of colours I had seen Kate use in her dvd, and I listed all the things I would like to try and achieve this year.
I'll be back tomorrow with DT news!

A journal page and desk of loveliness!

Seems like forever since I played along with the WOYWW crew, I keep forgetting to post on a wednesday, but I remembered today for some reason!! and as luck would have it I have a mass of yummyness on show.
Firstly I want to share my second proper attempt at a journal page..

I was totally inspired and helped along with the process by the lovely Rach who has provided me with endless help and knowledge on journalling over the past few weeks. Rach you are a total star x
 Now to what's on my desk....

I got a little bit carried away while watching the recent QVC craft day.
I only ordered the Martha Stewart paints as it's something I don't have a lot of and they looked kinda yummy.
I'm just getting into the whole art journalling thing so they will come in very handy..
I've yet to try them out so am looking forward to tomorrow when i'm not working and I can play..
But right now i'm off to bed!
 I have just got in from a 12 hr night shift and i'm cream crackered so i'm gonna take my leave, and hopefully hop round some desk in the next couple of days.
