A Dream



Hello, I hope you are well, and surviving the difficult times our world is going through. I don’t ever dream but if I did,  I think I would be whisked up, up and away in my wheelchair by a cascade of beautiful butterflies. This imaginary dream inspired me to create my wall hanging, more details are on the Calico Craft Blog today. 

Please stay safe, this beastly virus is far from gone xx

Bubble background


Hello how are you today? I have been playing with bubbles which is always fun, and this time it was crafting too! I was experimenting with making bubbly backgrounds. I have tried this before without much success. This time was a little more successful, so I thought I would share my discoveries.



I began by putting some inexpensive acrylic paint in a shallow bowl, and adding some fairy liquid and water. I used a straw to blow into the colourful liquid to make bubbles. I soon discovered that I needed a lot more paint, fairy liquid and water than I thought I did. After adding more the bubbles overflowed the top of the bowl, hurrah! I lowered my Mixed Media paper onto the bubbles, but this was not too successful. So I went with a scooping motion, and scooped the bubbles up onto the paper and left them to pop naturally.


This was a lot more successful! I only used red, blue and a purple, but I will try more colours next time. 

I hope I have inspired you to play with bubbles and make some bubbly backgrounds xx
