Think this one is my fave at the moment - just love the muted colours on the papers and the image - and the lace - well love it (from Running with Scissors of course :O). Added some Stickles in Frosted Lace to her top and wings, distressed and inked all the edges, added a few flowers and leaves (which were glimmer misted )and thats it for this one.
This is another Tilda image painted in distressed ink and layered onto PINK paper and card. The little girl whos birthday it is looks like Tilda apparently!!! Yikes - is that good or bad!
ANd my news - I've been published!!!!!! I'm in Scrapbook Inspirations - not yet seen the magazine but hopefully my copy will arrive on Friday. Although I know Tracey has seen it so may pay her a visit tomorrow if I can leave work early. Didn't expect it really as when I was asked to send in the original layout, I paid for track and tracing on it but the webpage was never updated by Royal Mail and showed up as still being in the post office in Ripon Street. When I rang Royal Mail they said it had been lost in transit and couldnt help me further. So that was it really. It wasnt until I got the layout back last week and a letter saying thank you and that I was going to be in the last ever issue!!!! Scrapbook Inspirations is no more - apparently they sell more tractor magazines than scrapbook magazines - can you believe it!! Will post a photo of the layout soon. TTFN xx
OOOOOH Polly, at last it's in! It seems ages since you told me it was going to be published, then it was 'lost' but it's brilliant that we will soon see your work in the magazine. Can't believe Scrapbook Inspirations won't be available any more, but there are others, so keep doing your thing, sure we'll be seeing more of your creations in print.
