and finally...my very first article for Scrapbooking Creations is out - although it has been for a while so the next issue is probably already on the stands...My article is all about ART PATCHES which is based on one of the @Home classes.
Check out the ART PATCHES class here
Basically Art Patches are mixed media little fabric swatches of loveliness which you can then use in your layouts, projects or cards etc. So there's lots of calico, fabrics, papers, paint, stitching and Mod Podge.
Here are my layouts from the article. And Art Patch 1 : paint, a little home scene from patterned paper and some stitching.
Art Patch 2: a HUGE big bit of calico, painted and Mod Podged with a mega patterned paper flower - all used as a background for the layout.
Art Patch 3 : a tiny calico pocket with a patterned paper heart design, paint, tiny letter stickers - all Mod Podged and then stitched in place. Great spot for a journaling tag.
and last one..Art Patch 4: a calico long tag with a paper pieced gal who has very unfortunate button hands...poor dear.
And now it's almost 8am and I need to get Capri organised and out the door for the school run...Phew..feels good to get some posts happening though.
IF and I mean IF there are ANY readers left out there who still pop n and read this thing, make sure you leave me a message. I would love for you to say hi...even if you haven't commented before...
