Village scene with tree

Here's a card I did for Christmas with the village scene and the tree and used sparkle.

Happy New Year 2013

Here is my calendar card.  I have used "Lovely as a Tree"and added some glitter.

BAGS AND PILLOW BOXES

These are what I made for WI party and other events.  I have used pillow box die and made the handbags from a design that Kate Martin showed me at her stamping up class.  I used papers and punches that I already own.

Marigold Odkin's paintings.

Hi everyone - I thought you might like to see my paintings.  I had help from an excellent tutor - Joanne Jenkins from the Coterie Gallery but the subject is painted from my own photographs and observations.  They are both done in acrylics and I have used real sand for texture and shimmer for the sea.

This is my first posting so please enjoy and watch this space in the New Year for stampin up cards.

The start of a new adventure!

I am new to blogging but decided to have a go. I want to write a book and publish a poem and paint a picture and sew a fine seam and join a gym and well everything is a new adventure as I have left work and I'm now living my creative side which is aching to get out and be free! I go to a parchment craft class and a painting class and a craft class or two and a textile class and slimming world and want to join a gym now.

Just been on a fantastic cruise and loved it.
