Sport at Craft-room

I really enjoyed Wimbledon this year and I will be following lots of tennis at the Olympics so I decided that tennis was to be the sport for me to enter a card for the Craft-Room Challenge


There are lots of the pattern images online and I loved this Butterick one.

The backing paper is from a craft magazine.The heart paper is the top layer of part of a serviette and I used the other two layers of the piece to make the simple flower. Distressed around the edges of the image then layered in on some card with a bit of a sparkle though you can't see that on the picture. The faux ribbon is from a magazine and the sentiment I made in Paint Shop Pro

Hi All. Thank you for visiting today and I hope you like what you see here. A fine bright day but colder today so I may fit in a walk later though I had some curtains to make before I do anything else. At Tag Tuesday this week the theme is Diva. I don't always remember to show my tags for there as you need to be a member and and do your own posts on Tag Tuesday's blog. I chose Elizabeth Taylor as my Diva she was so beautiful in films but definitely a Diva in her private life. Art Journal Journey are still drawing me in with the artists inspired theme so here is yet another page for the challenge there.  This was inspired by Damien Hirst though years ago I didn't feel inspired by his work at all when I saw some of it for real at the Liverpool Tate Gallery. We had gone there to see the wonderful Rodin sculpture 'The Kiss' which graced the entrance to the Gallery. Then we strayed into the next part and a whole wall was covered in dots. It didn't look like art to
