FAIRY CANVAS

Now Fairies are not really 'my thing', but I decided to join in a 'reverse fairy canvas' swap on Paperarts Yahoo Group. I made this one for me, because I had purchased these little gates a long time ago, loved them, but, never had the chance to use them.
The decorations on top & the wings were made with great moulds I purchased from my favourite E Store, Wednesday Wishes.
I like the result, let me know what you think.

JUNK OR TREASURE?


DH & I went to the Camberwell Market today.
Weather started off cool, then turned into a lovely sunny day.
I spent about $20 on these treasures, old folding ruler, 2 old tobacco/cigarette tins, old mini spirit level, some old metal 'things' old glass chandelier bits,tiny old padloock & my favourite, a cork topped glass vial of Hansens Junket Tablets!!
Love all my treasures, though DH thinks its just junk!

SPOOKY ANCESTORS


I joined in a swap on Paperarts Yahoo Group called SPOOKY ANCESTORS. We had to create 12 pages using ITKUPILLI images. I love these collage sheets, they are so much fun!The pages are 6" X 4" and when finished we will bind our own into a very SPOOKY family album.

I decided to make all my pages different, as I struggle trying to make so many pages all the same. I'm really looking forward to getting all the swapped pages back.

Below is a Slideshow I made of all my pages. Let me know what you think.

ART CHALLENGE




I have done the challenge set by Barb & Bevlea on their blog 2cre8art.

This is an easy peasy way to create something with alcohol inks.
I made a card & an ATC.

I like the results, because I like anything that is relatively easy!!
Thanks Bevlea & Barb.

COLLECTIONS LITTLE BOX SWAP


I am involved in a Collections Box Swap on artyoz.
When I signed up, I didn't know that the boxes were really small, and I don't like small!! Anyway, I have finished mine & it is on its way to Nikki.

I received these two little beauties from Gail. Aren't they great, I especially love the teeny tiny bottle. Thanks Gail.
