More Swaps

I finished off a couple swaps today...woo hoo...they're in the mail on their way to Greta. And no it's not a giant house LOL..it just looks that way because I scanned the whole page of ATCs instead of a single one.

Concertina House

I did a Concertina House class with Marg Buhagiar at Heaven Scent a week or so ago and this is how mine turned out. Marg was great, a very relaxed and generous teacher; we all had a terrific time. I've started another one since but haven't finished it yet.

Finishing some projects

So much for trying to paint faces. I thought I'd start by sketching but didn't get very far as I put the sketch pad down somewhere and that's the last I saw of it; I still haven't found it. Anyway I did have a good day trying to finish off a couple of projects. These are swaps I've been part of and I hadn't got around to doing anything with them. It's nice to have a way to display what you receive.
This is the first, two more to go. A little houses swap organised by Greta on ArtyOz. The background paper and rub ons are Basic Grey. The door I made from card which I embossed using my trusty Cuttlebug, I then rusted it with Metal Effects; I love rust. The key hole is Collections and the metal house is a buckle part I bought from Julie H in her etsy store, very cool I think.

10 more sleeps till MDM.........

Little House Swap

I finished these last night, thank goodness, that's one swap out of the way.




Today I hope to have a bit of a play. I'm working on an idea I have for a swap on Paper Queens and I'd like to paint or draw an image, the only problem is I can't do either. So I have to face my fear and have a go. This could be a total disaster, we'll see.

Christmas Swap

I made this for Elaine Hannam in a Christmas swap. Elaine and I got each other which was really fun.
