Mixed Media Birthday


Hello friends, how has your week going so far?  I decided to take a break from deadlines and 'play'.  Often when the household is in bed I can be found in The Studio, watching a good forensic show/ or murder and creating - I have used product lying on my desk - yet another attempt at cleaning - it is much more fun this way! LOL!


I have used the Spellbinders Mary Border Strip as my focal point.  My background paper is very special - it is handmade - a pack was given to everyone at the first Australian Mixed Media Roadshow by a lovely lady and artist Carol Cantrell. have sponged using Imagine Inks, stamped using various background images and splotched using Imagine Texture Sprays - it was a whole lot of fun - almost like therapy!!

The embellishment is handmade and coloured using Imagine Radiant Neon Inks.  I have also used  Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: E-Z Adhesive Runner, 3D Foam Squares - my 'go to' adhesives.

  11. Very bright and happy card. Thank you for blessing us with your creation at Word Art Wednesday. Leaving you with the Word of God in 1 Peter 1:13 which tells us, "Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming." Blessings always.
