Inchie and Canvas

Hi All. Monday again so time for an inchie and time to say thank you for calling in at Jumbled Crafts. Summer has arrived here and it is over 20 degrees with sun


At Twofers this time the theme is 'these are a girls best friend', you have to use a real stamp and ink so it is nice to join in and get inky again.

This 'canvas' started life a piece of packaging so not really a canvas at all. I painted it with acrylic paint and then added a picture. The picture background is Distressed Inks sprayed and the stamps are;

dress-Kanban
cat on chair- Docrafts Pampered Pets 
 The rose is an unknown stamp sent to me by a friend.

I coloured them all with Sharpies, a black pen and a white pen.

This week at Every Inchie Monday the theme is spiral

Hope these are spirals??

We did a bit of a kitchen makeover this week and decided the mug tree had to go. I thought it must have another use-------think----- it is now a hanger for all the rolls of tape I can never find in the bottom of the basket.

Have a great day

Love

xxxxxxxx

    Love all those ruffles on the skirt and the colours are so uplifting. I love your corrugated cardboard "canvas" too. Great idea with the mug tree... may have to borrow that!

    I love your fantastic canvas and the Posh Frock, I think I may have that stamp .mmm must have a look.
    Its a super inchie, I am always amazed on how its such a small space with many details.
    A great idea for the mug tree, will have to look in the Charity shops as mine is well used.

    I am not doing Twofers also, Chrissie. (Have to go to my other blog though to see. You can get there from the Zentangle blog though.) I love your girly canvas! Yup, you did a great spiral. I think that is quite a great use for an old mug tree too!

    These are good things for a girl to have for sure. I particularly think cat is important. A cat in the flowers, wearing a light summer smock...and a cup of something cool to drink, in a pretty cup, of Chrissie you have me having a lovely daydream with this page you made today. Enjoy your warm summer weather. Hugs-Erika

    Such a pretty card, and the more you look at it, the more you notice - that lovely mauve distressed corrugated card background, the sparkly butterflies in the corner, the look on the cat's face! Love the storage idea too. Thanks for joining us at twofers

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
