FUSION Family...

Missed out on posting this in time as I was heading to hospital for a knee arthroscopy. All good for now, but looking like I will need some additional hardware in the future!

Love the theme this fortnight @ FUSION, stamped this gorgeous Dina Wakely bird and paper pieced with this gorgeous American Crafts pattered paper. Created the envelope flap using Lil Inkers stitched square die on a 45 degree angle. Added this super cute Reverse confetti sentiment.

Check out some more super inspiration from the fabulous FUSION design team:

Can't wait to see what you create!

The ART of Possibility...

It has been a bit of a roller coaster this past fortnight, with DDs French Exchange trip postponed and DH starting a whole new career, so it was pure joy I was able to play at the Dina Wakely class by Artified last Friday, and when I arrived home I was inspired to create this journal page, to remind myself of all that is possible.

Created using acrylic paints on a gesso background, in yellow, orange and hot pink using Dina Wakely's circle and leaves stencils to create positive and negative spaces - thanks to the magic of baby wipes! Added highlights with white gel pen, painted the stencil sentiment by Dyan Reavley and highlighted in white gel pen, and added Dina Wakely's scribbly butterfly stamped on patterned paper fussy cut.
