Happy Thursday folks ......
How's your week been going?
The old craft room is back up and running as normal ...... whatever that is! I've made a start on next month's DT commitments even though Mr Mojo is still putting up a fight, but ..... I think I'm winning finally. I'm ready for the blog challenges at the beginning of next month at least which is better than I was last week! Although I'm still having fun (if that's what you can call it!) playing around with a new camera ....... photos are taking a little longer. Why is nothing ever easy!
I must admit that I'm looking forward to having time to play with all the lovely new stash that's arriving in the old craft room. New stamps ..... oooh! A few new stencils ....... lovely! Gorgeous new Finnabair paints ..... so pretty! And the new waxes .... can't wait to try those! I'm also making a start on a shopping list for the craft show at Port Sunlight at the beginning of May. My tickets arrived last week .... whoo hoo!! So looking forward to that, can you tell ..... it'll be the first time I've been off the island this year. Can't believe I've lasted this long!! Mind you, I am grounded a little now since the airline that flew into Blackpool went into liquidation!
Luckily I didn't have any flights booked like I normally have ..... hubby had one and we're still trying to get the money back for that!
In between all the DT/challenge stuff I have managed to have a little play in my journal again ...... sorry about the photos, what with the bad light and the new cameras I'm not sure that I've captured these pages properly
Lots of Prima goodies on these ..... the pretty doily stencil, used randomly off the pages with texture paste .....
Lots of shimmery pearlescent paints from the Finnabair range, in pretty pastel shades, brushed across both pages and also used to paint the butterflies
More butterflies stamped, painted and fussy cut before being added onto the page
And of course some words ...... stamped and clear embossed.
Lots of splatters across the pages to finish off ..... using black, white and gold paint
Not sure that the true shimmer really comes across in the photos, it looks so pretty and delicate in real life ..... the pastel shades are gorgeous. I'll get the hang of the camera ....... eventually!
Oh well ..... must dash. I've got a busy day ahead.
Thanks for popping by .... enjoy the rest of your day,
Cheerio until next time

I can see some lovely shimmer and the butterflies are so beautiful. Glad to hear Mr Mojo isn't winning the battle! Anne x
Can definitely see all the shimmer from your pearlescent paints Linda. And love the texture from the doily stencil. I now need to go check out Finnabair line of paints. :) xx
