I used this beautiful stamp by Phyllis Harris, to make a Clean Simple card for the Craft Barn Challenge. I don't usually do clean and simple so this was a good challenge for me to try!

I recently found this cute little notebook. I decided to alter the cover by using A lovely Teddy stamp by Crafty Insividuals, and colouring her with watercolours.I created the background by using chalks on water I have written a short tutorial on how I did this here. I then added a few spalshes of watercolours.
I tied a lot of pretty organza ribbons onto the book spiral.
Thank you so much for visiting.

This months Challenge theme at Mixed Media Mojo is Summertime with a Twist of Shells. you do not have to use the twist if you don't want to, it's all about having fun!
I made this fairly simple 6 x 6 mini book for the theme. I will be adding a few notes and pictures about how I created it later this month.
I hope you will join in the fun this month.
For the canvas I used a chipboard backing from a paper pad and coated it with gesso.
I glued layers of tissue paper on the top part of the canvas. When dry I used watercolours on top of the tissue and then stamped the sentiment. The remaining canvas was coloured with dye inks and splattered with watercolours.
I made the flowers with strips of fabric which I rolled around and around into a circle. Some twisted green net became its leaves.
I finished by adding a little sparkle and some cross stitches in a silver thread.
Thank you for visiting.
Please take a look at all the fabulous projects from the Mixed Media Design Team we have a fabulous guest Designer this month Ingrid. I hope you will join in with the challenge this month, have fun!
This week I have been busy making 50 identical invitations. I have done about 14 so far, and well they are not all quite identical!
I took a break from them, to join in the Unity Challenge on Facebook which is to use the colours Teal and Grey. These are not my most favourite colours so this was a real challenge.
I cut the butterflies out of some very pretty tissue paper.
Thank you for visiting.
Don't forget there is plenty of time to enter The Mixed Media Mojo Challenge which this month is Recycle with a twist of using Metal.
