Get your art on at the Crafters Café. Anything arty, inky, drawing, painty - really just a good reason to get a bit messy. Check it out here: crafterscafe

Thanks to sponsor Scribbles designs who provided this wonderfully exquisite image, get it here: scribblesdesignsTangleDoodles

Aren't these lilies lovely?

I made a background using Distress Oxide inks, smooshed, dabbed and dribbled. Then, when it was dry I printed the image on it. I trimmed it to focus on part of the image, and framed it like a work of art. The diamonds spill out of the painting to the sentiment.

I am a silver haired wife, mother of four, and nonna of eight.. I come from a long line of crafters, both men and women. I love working with paper and fabric, so on my blog you will see both aspects of my work. I don't seem to have a specific style (too easily distracted) but I do like to get inky with stamps and colour! I hope you will enjoy the variety, and maybe be inspired to try something for yourself. Thanks for looking at my blog. It would be great if you left a message as I always appreciate your comments. Please respect my creativity and use only for personal inspiration. Please do not use my work or publish without my consent. Thank you, Carol.
