Special order

Hiya Crafties!

Today 3 cards - special order from our lovely neighbour Margaret. She asked me for personalized Xmas cards for her best friends. Not easy order - all Ladies are around 70 years old and I don't know them...

Margaret said 'nothing silly, fancy, maybe flowers..', hmmm, hard stuff I thought.. animals, maybe winter scene... Mum suggested to make few cards and ask Margaret to choose her faves and that's what I did :)

First card chosen by Margaret is for her friend Margaret (yes, this lady has the same name as my neighbour) - image: Christmas bears from Art by Barb.



Second card is for Shirley - image from TiddlyInks.



And last but not least, card for Kathleen - image of robin (designed by Jennifer Ellory) from free gift set at Cardmaking & Papercraft (year 2015).


What do you think about these cards?

Hope Margaret's friends will like their cards :)

Till next post Friends!

Craft fairs

Hiya crafty Friends!!!

Sorry I'm so quiet lately!

Last Saturday I was on my first craft fair... maybe I didn't make huge money, but I was on plus even though people who came weren't many. We all are hoping next 5 weeks will be better as more people will now about our craft fairs.

I had some of my cards on stall and jewellery pieces which left me from my etsy shop plus few abstract canvases I paint.


3 piece set - kinda art deco :)


Bracelets for kiddos - about 10 different colours and styles


Earrings with beads and semi-precious stones



'Girl' - bit sparkly abstract canvas paint with palette knife


'Rain' - another abstract paint with palette knife.

I didn't sold canvases (but had some interest in them, so... who knows). Sold few cards and few pieces of jewellery - mainly for children.


This pom-pom bookmark is one from 12 I made today for my next craft fair November 24th.

Have few more other things in mind plus need to finished ordered personalized Xmas cards for my neighbour.

Wish me luck with my 2nd fair :)

Till next post Friends!

For Grace

Hiya Crafties!!!

Today something special.

Card and mixed media canvas made for my son's school friend - Grace. Dom is going for her birthday party this Sunday :)

For her card he choose image and sentiment from TiddlyInks set called Happy Day. Plus we agreed card will be shaker not simple one :)


I used 2 ptterned papers and lots of gold mirri card :) Plus gold glitter glue on image and gold tiny bits in shaker window.

Below mixed media canvas.


I played with tissue paper on this one as original idea didn't work - glittery paint we bought was a mess!!!
I covered canvas with tissue paper stick to it with nice coat of pinky acrylic paint, then after drying add shading with oil pastels in green and yellow plus some silver glitter glue and to finish it stick prepared butterflies (stamped, coloured and cut out).

I hope she will like her gift :)

That's all for today.

Till next post peeps!
