WOYWW

It has been a long time since my  last post. I have not been feeling very creative lately but I wanted to post one last time before Christmas.

I have had a Birthday since I was last here and I received a gift of some Portfolio water soluble oil pastels so I thought I would try them out but unfortunately I still couldn't get those creative juices flowing and produced nothing. However I did manage a Christmas themed tag (which did not include the use of the pastels).



I used a piece of corrugated card which I covered in glitter and the stylized Christmas tree is made from some leftover brown paper with random patterns stamped in black ink. I then distressed the edges with a distress ink pad.

I photographed this in terrible light and you can't appreciate the lustre of the tag. It looks much better in real life.

For my Birthday my daughter made me this lovely gift to put in my Art Room.


On that note I would like to wish all my visitors a very........

MERRY CHRISTMAS
HAPPY NEW YEAR.
