Time to make a zine



This morning I got up early to join the UKSN in a Zoom Craft and Chat.

Mickey led the workshop making a zine... Although I have made a printed one before I have not made one like this. Mickey demonstrated how to fold and cut a piece of A4 and then we had free rein to decorate the zine 

These are my pages using Art by Marlene papers images and sentiments. I also used a bit of Tim Holtz washi and a Carabelle stamp.





I will add this zine to the Outlawz









Happy Crafting!

Using Images from Michelle Grant Designs


 I continue to use images from Michelle Grant Designs

I have a drawer full of printed images that I am trying to use!

I am adding pages to this journal:


A couple of weeks ago I produced this page using just the three Mattints I had, plus Art by Marlene markers.
I also used Visible Image stamps.
The main image is Michelle's Courage,


Since then I have added to my set of Mattints and I used a similar process on this page.


The image is Karen Yates Cat and Mouse from Colour Me Crazy


My next step was to add some collage pieces:


And finally a sentiment...


GIVE YOURSELF TIME to play and have a little fun!



Happy Crafting!

WOYWW # 822

AAAAAAH - I forgot to post this - sorry I am so late... it is always so hectic when we have Ollie...

It is Wednesday so

 I am linking to WOYWW at Sarah's craft shed

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #822 


My desk shows that I have been making cards and ATCs using Visible Image stamps plus a cat journal page - yet to be finished.
I have also been playing with some pressed flowers:


I also used some of them to make seals with hot glue - I saw a video on Facebook doing this.


I used two of them on this altered playing card:



This completes my rainbow - a challenge with the UKSN


On my desk easel is a journal page using another image from the
 Conjuror of Dreams Progressive image Challenge. 


Can you spot my new earrings which just happened to be on that piece of white paper?

We went to see the Yayoi Kusama exhibition at the NGV at the weekend. Amazing!



At the weekend Pandamart opened nearby - the first one in Australia and the equivalent of 'hands on' Temu - the queues were horrendous - we didn't go!!





Happy WOYWW!
