Things are looking rosy...

For a while there I really thought my mojo had packed its bags and left for the summer. Then Viv posted a challenge on the 'Art and Soul' group over on Flickr. Mixed media with a vintage image. mmm. Not up my street at all lol. Feeling slightly challenged, I decided I wanted to make a slightly larger piece and started with four 5 x 5 cards and then went mad with layers, paints, transfers, embossing, glazes and embellies..... had a whale of a time. (Ruined my acrylic nails tho, good job they needed to be re-done). This is the one which I am entering for this challenge so thanks Viv for helping me find my mojo. The main image is from Itkupilli. Perhaps lacking a bit in texture, and I have only used fibres not fabric in this one but think I have covered the brief.

Of the other three, two have gone in the post as BRAKS, (is it a tease to write that? I hope no one with a birthday coming up gets disappointed!! Sigh,...Now that just sounds conceited...) and I will blog them next week after they have arrived at their destinations. The fourth one will be the July give away (here's another little tease) but I haven't quite put the finishing touches to it yet, ..... will upload the finished project at the weekend....

It's another beauty Cindy! Would love to see it close up - all those layers sound fab! My mojo has gone missing too lately, but I'll have to see if I can make something for the challenge.

Congrats on getting one of your ATCs in Craft Stamper magazine this month!
