I Finally Got Some Playtime!

Some of my followers will know that I have been rather busy for the last couple of months - and this has meant that I have not been able to craft!!

This weekend was the first time that I could do anything crafty and I could not wait to get my fresco paints out!! .....and I haven't done any journalling for even longer!  So I set about doing whatever took my fancy....

I added various colours of Fresco paints and dried them.  Next I added Paper Artsy Infusions and activated them with water - I just love these!! They are fabulous to work with!

I then added various die cuts and shapes and added more paint and treasure gold.  I forgot to take more pictures of the stages because I was having so much fun!!
I added stamping using Emma Godfrey for Paper Artsy stamps - I thought the quote was quite apt for my creation. 

This is my finished page

I was enjoying myself so much during this that I forgot to take any pics of the stages at all!!  I wanted something brighter - and this is what I came up with


You can see that I have scribbled and doodled on my page this time - I still totally blame, but thank, Kate Crane for this!!

This is my final creation..... I used the Everything Art for Paper Artsy stamps.  I used the same Fresco paints for this as the last page - but they look totally different!  So much fun creating though.  And it was great to be able to get creative again this weekend - much needed!!

Thanks for taking the time to read my blog.....
