Leftovers

I have this thing about the messy desk. I am able to create for days under the mess around me until I reach certain point when it makes me nervous and I can't stand it. Usually it takes days until I finish with clearing, storing and cleaning. Than I usually end up with many unfinished "great ideas" that I keep in box for better days when they will finished. Well today I had one of those days when the mess got me. I decided to finish off some of the ATC's by using all the embellishments, paper leftovers and anything that I had laying on my desk for weeks. At the end of the day I ended up with 11 new ATC's clean desk ready for new projects.

Done

After spending entire day doing nothing else than playing with this page now is the time to start thinking about working a bit around the home (ah you know – the boring stuff: cleaning, washing, ironing, cooking... For all of you who wonder: Yes , I do such things as well!!!).




As soon as I finished this post I realised that the contrast was to big for a tiny detail in the middle. So I had to do painting, scanning, changing all slides and republish the post (typical me - Miss Perfection). Judge for yourself if it was worth doing it but I'm happier with the result.

Leonardo's women

Addicted to shrink plastic? Possibly! Tissue paper background and Cherry Pie stamps worked well together although the scanner is letting me down (it just doesn't pick up all the colours that well).

Frida

I've been playing with shrink plastic for tomorrow's class (sorry Kelsey couldn't help myself) and this is the result:



I love "Frida Kahlo" stamp by Lost Coast Designs which with help of the "Ink spray" stamp by Cherry Pie was perfect combination.

The background for the new page is also ready so... only one ATC to go. I bet I will have the page finished before the class.
