News!!!

If you watched Create & Craft on the telly this morning at 11am those eagle eyed and eared among you would have seen the below projects and heard my name. You guessed it, I am now a very proud member of the IndigoBlu Design Team whhooooopppp!

These are the samples that I created for this mornings show. All apart from one were shown. I had quite a short time scale to make some samples and the whole 2 days I had it bucketed it down so I was unable to take decent photo's before I had to post them.

Many thanks and much love to all the tweeter and stickum girlie's for your support and encouragement over the last 4 days. Couldn't have done it without you!

What's on my desk today? Two little figures I found cheaply in a local shop. The left one has been given the Andy Skinner treatment, its not finished yet and the right one is the original how I bought it!

Also in the background is a sneaky peek of a surprise that will be revealed on Sunday.

As I have mentioned probably a million times I have been doing the most awesome workshop with the amazing Andy Skinner. When I first heard of Andy I was told "He is the UK version of Tim Holtz" I must disagree, he is nothing like Tim Holtz in style or media. He is our Andy Skinner and no version of anyone but a unique and amazing teacher with a wealth of mixed media knowledge and talent. All his class's are amazing, I have done a couple now and plan on doing many many more.

This project has been completed with the Timeworn Techniques class and so far has turned heads with everyone I have shown it to. I am so happy to have met Andy, he is a such a genuine and talented man!

The first two pictures are the before, the rest the after. When dark and with a candle inside it does glow quite nicely. I image transferred some map paper onto the glass to make it transparent.

On my desk this week isssssssss a really bad ornament that I found in a local RSPCA charity shop that I plan to alter with techniques learned on the fabulous Andy Skinner Timeworn Techniques workshop and a mask that I have already started to alter using a technique from the same workshop.

The lovely Gina told me back in Feb about a fab challenge called 29 faces, I missed it that time round but its back whoooot!!
