This is my work for this weeks theme, which has been set by Ang as she loves butterflys.

Week 14 Challenge work



These are my pieces for this weeks challenge & the theme was chosen by Andrea which is "children"
The fat page was inked up with distress inks, then 2 of Tim's stamps were used & the ranger gold pen around the edges.
The arch had acrylic dabbers used as the base, then again, another of Tim's stamps with distress inks. As I made these in advance, I forgotten what I have used! I think I then used clear embossing powder over the stamped image. And once again, the rangers gold pen around the edge.

D E F Skinnys



These are my D E F skinnys for the swap on lots to do.

Distressed Moos



These are my moos for a swap being hosted on Lots to Do Forum.
I inked them all up then used various stamps for the background.
I then played about with Grunge board & acrylic dabbers.

Words Challenge



This is my work for the words challenge this week.
I have to be really honest here, I had an idea in my head, but you know what it's like,I got carried with inking, stamping etc etc, that it turned out nothing like my idea in my head!
But I hope Hilda likes it!

Tag swap





These are my tags for a swap hosted on Lots to do forum.


We had to make 3 tags, 1 large, 1 medium & 1 small & doing 1 distressed, 1 stamping as main image & 1 free choice.


My large tag is stamping as main image, the medium can either being distressed or free choice, as is the small one.


I shall let the host decide which she thinks is best! (Sorry Sam!)


Brights swap



These are for a swap hosted on Lots to do forum.

We had to do 4 pieces using "bright" colours & a stamped image.

I choose to do a skinny, moo, arch & atc

All have started off with dabbers from the "brights" range of colours then all stamped with the same Tim Holtz stamp. Some of the images have been embossed with Ranger clear powder.

Green fat pages



These are my pages for Junes fat page draw on Lots to do Forum.

They have all been stamped using various images with archival black ink & then heat embossed with either clear or holographic powder.

They look much better in the flesh as this scan doesn't show the embossing very well!

Week 11 Challenge



These are what I made for this weeks challenge on Lots to do challange blog.

The first is a skinny with a poem using the word rainbow.

The second is an atc with the childrens programme Rainbow!
