Phew - finally got round to adding a post!. Well, after spotting these Magnolia stamps on Tracie's blog (Running with Scissors), - I loved the way they were coloured in with distress inks. I just had to have a go. To be honest I found it very theraputic and the time just flew by. My cuppa was stone cold by the time I got round to drinking it!!!!
Hello, I'm Polly.
I love altered art, cardmaking, ATC's, in fact anything that needs gluing, stamping, inking or cutting is just my idea of heaven!!!!
I am pleased to say that my husband of 7 years is extremely tolerant of my crafts, especially as I tend to spread from one room to another,well aren't all we all a little messy when we're being creative!!
I like to incorporate all kinds of embellishments in my work especially lace, ribbon, butterflies, angels, hearts etc in fact anything pretty and girly. I soooo love pretty and quirky pieces of art. I was lucky enough to see Tim Holtz in the flesh recently - seeing him was just fantastic. It was only a one hour demonstration but its amazing how much inspiration you come away with.
I hope you enjoy my blog
Great colour combos Polly xxx
