Spring Fling

Hi everyone, it's time for a new theme at Try It On Tuesday. With the start of Spring this weekend our new theme is 'Spring Fling', and anything Spring  related is what we'd like to see. The Design Team have lots of different ways to celebrate my favourite season. Mothers Day is coming up and so is Easter - the eggs have been on sale in the shops for quite a long time!!

I've made a journal page, which started with a sprinkle of green Brushos which were spritzed to make the colours spread. I used Carabelle stencils and stamps designed by Birgit Koopsen and then added some random stamping around them. The quote is one of Paper Artsy's Alison Bomber's Spring quote stamps, and with this lovely sunshine we are having in the UK describes my mood perfectly!

I do hope that you will join us at TIOT this time. I'm looking forward to seeing how you celebrate Spring.

Thanks for looking, Chris

For a Lady...

Hi everyone, the time really is running away this year for us! March already, and with Mothering Sunday (also known as Mother's Day) coming up we are thinking about the women in our lives with our new theme at Try It On Tuesday - 'For A Lady' 

The Design Team have such a great variety this time - please take a look here!

I made a note card to send to a friend. I used some dotty paper for my background and some napkin tissue on some paper that I had previously sprinkled some metallic powder on and spritzed. I added a little bit of text around the rose.

I hope that you can join us at Try It On Tuesday this time with your feminine art - remember any craft is accepted among as long as it follows the guidelines - as usual the theme runs for two weeks.

Thanks for looking, Chris
