Rainbow Poppy's Bits and Bobs: 10/10/10 - 17/10/10
http://rainbowpoppy.blogspot.com/2010_10_10_archive.html
Monday, 11 October 2010. I have always admired people who could knit. My mum and grandmother were amazing at knitting, they made the most beautiful shawls and baby cardigans, and seemed to whip them up in no time. I lose patience with knitting and need something quick and easy to knit. Years ago I discovered Jean Greenhowe's knitting patterns. They are quick and easy to follow, you can get amazing results in very little time. There is a free stocking knitting pattern on Jean Greenhowe's website here.

Rainbow Poppy's Bits and Bobs: Art journal
http://rainbowpoppy.blogspot.com/2010/07/art-journal.html
Monday, 5 July 2010. I was inspired to use different techniques by Milliande's website. Which I found with a simple google search. I love trying out new techniques so Lynne and I are making pages for each other using different techniques. We have decided to keep the pages small these are approx 4" by 6". I took the masking tape off and drew random squares with watercolours and pro-markers. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm a creative girl. Free Blog Hit Counter. Am I just a boring house wife?

Friday, 24 September 2010. Its a Creative World, simple things project. This months word was inspiration, and this is the page I have created. I wanted my page to be a collage of different techniques that I could use as a reminder. I used acrylic gel medium to transfer a vintage photo onto a piece of canvas that had already been covered with a layer of gesso and stamped on. I covered the top with a layer of pva glue and the heat gun has given the wrinkled look! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Tuesday, 15 June 2010. Did you know you can paint on records? I found a couple of old records in a charity shop and decided I had nothing to lose. I used a cake decorating template for the flowers and white and pink acrylic paint. You can use acrylic stamps too, as long as you dont over load the stamp and clean it straight away you can get some amazing detail on your records. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I'm a creative girl.

Tuesday, 1 June 2010. Honesty. I have always considered honesty in my own children to be very important so when I found this quote linked with school and children I found a vintage photo of school children to use. I used Lyndseys diary and inked the letters. The background has card stock put through a script embossing folder and inked or sanded to add extra detail. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
