ATC

Hello to everyone who visits Jumbled Crafts and I must say I have been 'jumbling' my crafting this week so far--if you looked at my table you would see what I mean. Next job is to sort it out so that I can start all over again.


This time at Fun with ATCs they want us to use at least 3 stamps on our ATC.



This is the what I made.

 I started out with this wooden ATC that I won at Craftie Emblies a long time ago. I painted it with white matte emulsion and then swiped Distressed ink all over the texture lightly.


Next I stamped this beautiful Japanese lady-I haven't a clue who makes this stamp and I have had it long time -either I won it or some kind person sent it to me. If you know who makes it can you let me know please? After masking this stamped image I added others from sets by Hobby Art and Lakeland both very old sets. Then I roughly stamped an edging from a foam stamp with no name at all-perhaps as well as it wasn't very good :(

I coloured some of the images here and there and then found the word ART in Japanese and added that.

Hope you all have a great day--at the moment we have very high winds and rain but I am hopeful it will turn nice later.

Love Chrissie x

    Hi Chrissie, I have been going though your posts and I have fallen in love with your paper crafts. I too enjoy journaling and making tags and cards. I am also into sewing, anything artsy and music. Retirement has given me time to pursue all the things that I didn't have time for when I was working, and I am enjoying every blessed day. The quotes that you use on your projects are wonderful and I love your photos of Skegness and that insect hotel, wow. It's so unique and artsy, too cool for insects, LOL.
    I am your newest follower and I would love to invite you over to visit and hopefully to follow me back. I so enjoy making new blogging friends.
    Your blogging sister, Connie :)

    Love the colors, Chrissie. Painting on wood is an experience. The effect is so different from other surfaces.

    Blessings,

Tag and Journal page design

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
