Try it on Tuesday-Things with Wings

Hello Everyone. Nice to have you visit Jumbled Crafts today and I am sure you are waiting to see what
 Try it on Tuesday has as the theme to challenge you this time. Wonderful ideas for the Summer Colours Challenge from everyone who joined in It will be difficult to choose just 5 for sure.

Hope you will go and see what all the DT have made for our 'Things with Wings' challenge then join in with your own take.

I made a picture which I have hung in the hallway but the sun was too bright there to take a photograph so I took it into the garden and now it has shadows. :(
The wooden frame and wooden coasters were painted with a pale blue emulsion paint then sanded back to show some of the wood. I sprayed a bit of glimmer mist onto them for a bit of extra effect. Wouldn't be me if there wasn't Glimmer Mist somewhere.
The gold blobs were made with some embossing flakes-sorry I can't find them to say what make they were. I only just bought them and now they are hidden-I guess I am not the first person that has happened to.
The butterflies are from a packet I bought at our local craft shop-the name on the pack in Mic Craftpack and there were four in a pack for 50p.
Little flowers made from a Marianne Die and leaves stamped and coloured on canvas paper. The background  is made up of various bits of paper from my scrap box.

Can't wait to see what you make

I would also like to enter this at Tando Creative Challenge where they have the theme Come Fly with Me

Love Chrissie xx

    How lovely! So clever to use those coasters as panels, and I love the background papers. Beautiful shabby chic look (and fab colour too) on the frame and coaster backgrounds.

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
