(This photo hasn't been here all day as Blogger wouldn't let me post it - gah!)
I'm about to do a class with Kirsty Wiseman on art journalling called Me in my MoleskinE (big E on the end for ME) so it will get well used. Add to that, I am currently painting 4 pirate canvasses for a friend's little boy's room which you can see in progress on the worktop there. I painted some for L's room and she saw them and liked them. It is the first time ANYONE has liked anything I've done enough to ask me to do something for them and I feel really chuffed. I'm not charging her for a couple of reasons. Number 1, its not a business and she is a friend. Number 2, they are not my designs and I can't make any money from them. Sadly I can't find the seller who was doing the original artwork so I can't tell her how much she inspired me with her fun and quirky pictures but I will keep searching for her.
Anyway, that's all from me today but I have other creations to share tomorrow. Pop on over to Julia's blog to have a nose at other people's workspaces, whatever their work might be. As usual, I will get to everyone who gets to me, plus some others depending on time - oh how we crafters wish we could stop the clocks once in a while....
Bye for now

Oh, I want to see the pirate piccies!!!!! I think you've forgotten to attach a photo!
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa-Jane, snap! Blogger won't let me upload my photo either and I'm quite relieved to find it isn't just me that's having problems. Look forward to seeing the pirate pictures eventually when normal service has been resumed. Elizabeth x #74

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing today,

Blogger is being a right pain at the moment. Hope you can post pics soon.
ReplyDeleteYes, Blogger's been playing up again - I just shrug and say 'Blogger it!' ;) What a pity though, the description sounds most intriguing....
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing you in Kirsty's class! xx
Like the look of the Pirate canvas!

Hooray, great to be able to see the pic now :)
ReplyDeleteI popped by earlier before Blogger started behaving with your photo and wanted to see your space so came back again and I'm glad I did. You look very at home in your new room and your pirate picture looks great. Don't forget to show us it when it's finished.
ReplyDeleteHappy Crafting

Hi - glad you liked my little shop pic - my little collages are just layers of fabric which I have stitched down with free machine embroidery - easy if you have a sewing machine.
ReplyDeleteI have a couple nephews that are pirate crazy. I can't wait to see what your canvases look like finished. Thanks for sharing. Vickie #107
ReplyDeleteBlogger problems here too, Fun looking project you have there.
ReplyDeleteKeep smiling and creating, I couldn't play this week, but watch for my post next Wednesday for sure!!
The canvases look fab. I wanted to do Kirty's workshop but I just didn't have time, post lots of pics of your progress.

ReplyDeleteAnother who can't wait to see the finished pirate paintings. I think they will be awesome:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and how about adding a sticker to the side of your inkpads with the colour dabbed on, for easier identification in your tote.
Love the pirate idea for a boys room! Will have to pop back to see the end painting! Happy Crafting, thanks for the snoop! HapPy VeRy LaTe WoYwW!
