Distress & Crackle



Abit of a play today, left and middle are using the new Tim Holtz distress summer inks, lovely vibrant colours from Tim this time.  The tag on the right is using the decoArt Crackle medium, which
was used on the heart canvas with Andy Skinner . ( I do hope the link has worked, first time of trying)

A Day at the Beach



  • Good morning on this bright and sunny morning for a change,  as I live by the sea thought you might like a look at my beach hut I made following a class with Linda Elborne.  This one is made up of odds & ends I had left, using grunge board distress inks etc. Base is an old wooden mount, seagull from a pack of novelty buttons.  Today is open garden day in my village, so will be cycling around checking other people gardens to get tips and hints for mine.
