heart,art and healing-week 1

Yay! i did it!!!!
i finished week 1.......and i have to say that i'm truly amazed at what i've done:)even if she does look a bit moody LOL
i've NEVER drawn a face before,never painted before and never done backgrounds like this before......and whats even more amazing is that i've got something half decent out of it :)
i used a ton of stuff on the pages!!
acylic paints,watercolour pencils,inktense pencils,stamps and inks and pearly paint...ok-thats doesn't sound like a lot now i've 'written' it down LOL
it was really good fun too.thank soo much Tam...can't wait for next week when we'll be using a board book (class goes up on monday-i think!)

catch up time!!!

i seem to have fallen a bit behind with the 25th club on bubbly funk (again!).....and i've forgotten to do one-sorry kaz!! i will get round to it :)
joannes challenge was to use a photo that she shared for inspiration-it was a photo of gold baubles covering a flight of stairs......my cards are a bit simple but they are gold and do have baubles on them.......





hazel asked us to do cards where the wording was the main focus.....i've only done one so far.....



this next card is made using some free papers from a magerzine (can't remember which one!) and i've copied a card that was in the magerzine because i thought it was cute :) (used a different image though!)



this card was made using some bits and pieces i got from craftwork cards...



and finally.....are you still with me LOL....
2 cards that i made using a new set of stamps from woodware.....i love how these have turned out but they were a lot of hard work because it was difficult to find buttons and brads and other bits that would fit!! i think next time i'll try just colouring them all in LOL........

no crafting-just a little update!!


the other day i joined ukstampers by following a link on angelnorths blog-it seems a nice little friendly forum,which is good for me because i get 'lost' on big forums-which is why i LOVE bubblyfunk sooo much :)
looking through their (ukstampers!) daily chat i came across a post by lorraine saying that she'd joined a free online course for art journalling-now i love the look of this stuff but can never quite get my head around it so the thought of a free course appealed to me because i didn't want to spend a load on a course i wasn't going to enjoy and get nothing out of it!!i know that sounds terrible,but it's true!!
you'll find the details of the course here ...i've signed up and watched the video that tam has put on there,but now i'm a bit worried because it sounds like a lot of stuff about 'me'.......i'm not very good at talking 'deeply' about me-i get embarrassed about it! the deepest thing i can say about me is that i just like being me and thats all there is to it-i don't know why i like being me-i just do!!! so i think my pages will be a bit empty LOL.......but i'll give it a good go :)
