Welcome!

This is my place to share my creative bits and pieces. My art has no rules, no limits and absolutely no order. My projects change with my moods but for the last few years, my main focus has been paper art. Cards, collage, mixed media and as many techniques as I can get to. My inspiration comes from everywhere.

I hope you enjoy your visit.

BUTTON & BOW

I had no idea that black picked up so much light. No flash was used- I try to never use it for cards- but enough light in the room reflected off the black.  The technique here is called Water Colour Whimsy and uses vellum.
You can see from the sample card that it's easy to do, just messy. I love messy! I want to try this on reagular white cardstock, maybe black too, and see how it looks. Is it the WC paint or the vellum that gives the luminosity? Stay tuned.........
 
Enjoy your day - it's a beauty!
Thank you for stopping by.

BLACK & WHITE TANGLE

I'm still working on tangles. White on black seemed like a good thing to try, so I did and it was.
I'm very happy to be showing this to you. Maybe a bit more than usual because I haven't been thrilled with my card offerings lately. I liked the technique, so I posted them.
In trying to keep it real on my blog, I will show the not so good as well as the stuff that I makes me happy.  This one, makes me happy.  :)

Thanks for looking- I appreciate you.

A SMALL CHANGE

I am much happier with this card. I think it's better than just okay.All I added was more silver glimmer paper, a framed sentiment and some black leaves. Easy fix. Now, I'm happy to submit it to Colour Q.
Don't forget to check out the other entries at Colour Q.
Give it a try!

Happy New Year everyone!
