Journal page and Twinchie

Hello Everyone who pops into Jumbled Crafts and thank you for your visit.

This is the first of two posts I will be doing today as there will be a new challenge at Artful Times later so I will be showing my DT piece for there. It is a great theme for a lot of you so hope you will join in.

This week at the Twinchies Challenge the subject is idols.


This is my take. I just found a picture of an idol statue and printed it out twice to fit on a twinchie. I decoupaged one of the images to give it more depth then drew the dots down each side.


This is the second page in my journal for the 2014 Craft Barn Challenge The challenge is 'Quotes and Lyrics' for the whole year but we are given words to include for each challenge. The words this time are Silence and Dazzle-you can use either or both. I made a 'dazzling' background but most of it has been covered up with my silence images and quote.  The background was splodged acrylic paints. I found the little girl covering her ears on the net, added the word silence then the quote that I wrote out in Paint Shop Pro.

Have a good day and lovely weekend everyone

Chrissie x

    Very clever use of the word "idol" I wouldn't have thought of that. I was thinking more along the film star idol. Great.

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
