Oscar turned 3 .. and I bought this stamp just for him! Talk about leaving it to the last minute .. this was finished at around midnight the night before the party.

I’m starting to think that I work best under pressure .. because this didn’t turn out like I had planned .. and I think that is a very good thing .. because I’m really happy with the final outcome!

Sometimes there isn’t enough time in the day .. okay .. there is never enough time in the day (or night)!

This canvas is quite simple .. but I think it’s the simplicity that I love the most!

All boys love Spiderman (I think) .. so I hope that Andrew liked his very own Spider Canvas.

So it seems I don’t have any time at the moment to craft for myself .. but it feels great to be able to make gifts for the kids parties!

I especially love to make the girly pink things .. flowers, butterflies and glitter all make me happy!! And I love how sweet this gift is …

For Harrison I’ve revamped an old frame with Crackle Paint .. added some grungy paper, some thickers and of course all boys like skulls!!

art collage …

Posted in canvas creations, collage on October 1, 2011

Well it’s been a while since I’ve felt creative enough to make something. This collage was started months ago .. with all the bits and pieces waiting patiently .. and I finally finished. These colours have been very appealing lately .. even creeping into my wardrobe!

custom notebooks …

Posted in craft, notebook on August 25, 2011

We celebrated two birthdays last week … my Mum (h) and my daughter’s good friend (t) … both born on the same day!

I recently ordered some fabric from Art Candy … I love Amy Butler’s designs and the colours are gorgeous … and decided to customise some notebooks … love how they turned out! (My Mum really loved it too!)

a gift for claudia …

Posted in craft, gifts on August 23, 2011

Matthew was invited to Claudia’s party and I was so happy to make something pretty and pink.

I’ve had this mdf mirror for ages .. and it was so much fun decorating it. I used this piece as my inspiration .. and I was very happy with how it turned out.

And Claudia liked it too!

Back in March I attended the Donna Downey workshop – Inspiration Journal. It was a great class .. heaps of fun ideas!!

Some of these pages aren’t finished yet … but I love that! I can come back another day and some more layers!

This page was started with a magazine image …

the gift giving continues …

Posted in canvas creations, notebook on August 4, 2011

Last weekend the kids were invited to two birthday parties … Olivia turned 12 … and received this handmade journal …

And Jamie went to Luke’s Under the Sea themed party .. the invitation included sand and shells .. so I thought an Underwater Canvas was needed!

The party host did an amazing job with all the decorations! Although I have to say that I was surprised when Jamie was given a fish to take home instead of the usual lolly bag .. his name is Mr Goldberg!
