These are my pages for a "Spontaneous Fabric CJ" .... the top black and white one is my page, the middle one is the front cover with the name ARTITEXTURE ... and the last one is the back cover.
Apart from the "square" pin tucks in the first piccie, all pleats, tucks,beading, embroidery and sewing in general is hand done which explains some of the wavy lines!!!

Almost half way!



I'm in a swap for Christmas and I didn't know what to do .. what I thought my swappee would like or perhaps a modern one but then again how about a really old fashioned one? By being a little more patient, I was supplied with the information I need. ... must learn to wait!!

Another LSN.



I made it!! You make your notes on the day, but scrap them the day after .. when you've thought about what you learned .... I must admit it does make you think!

Learn Something New






These are the first 5 day's LOs for Shimelle's fabby class Learn Something New everyday. I hope to get another one uploaded, and then I am up to date. Yipee!!

Definitely getting the hang of these now! I think they go well with "Victorian" "gentile" papers .. a bit shabby chic even!!

Draagon Circle mini-book



Annette goaded me into doing this Circle mini-book by saying it should be about DRAGONS ... and she knows what I'm like with DROGONS !!!
So here it is .. two Oriental and two Occidental DRAGONS ... with Dangleys too.

Annette gave some super instructions on making a square mini-book ... and although I'm a dedicated digi scrapper, I couldn't resist!! So these are the piccies of the finished article.

These are my first attempts to "alter" a baby rubber duck!!
I had great fun , got very inky fingers and glue and glitter everywhere ... but I like them, so I don't care!!!
