Happy Week!

So far this week I am having a Happy Week! On Monday the kind postman brought me TWO lovely packages.

The first one was a Goodie Box from 3D Jean - Monthly Art Raffle. This raffle is great fun everyone sends in a small item and at the end of the month a winner is drawn to win the whole lot!! I didn't win the rwhole raffle, but a lovely side prize for having the 28th entry this month. So thanks Jean for the lovely papers and stamps. I will certainly put them to good use.

The second package was a super art magazine from my friend Zoe in America - we usually swap ATC's and knitting hints, but we decided to send each other magazines this month and it makes such a refreshing change to see some new and different ideas. The only problem now is that I need eight days in every week to do everything!

I am also trying to make Ribbon Dolls for our Monthly Doll Swap but so far not too happy with the results! I have two more in progress so watch this space.

Busy Busy Busy...........

Oh dear, I must be busy or going senile! I forgot to go for my dentist appointment yesterday! They even phoned me the day before to remind me and I still forgot. Just too much going on in this little old brain of mine at the moment.

I have been busy making mini art dolls - see above - for a swap on Ravelry. Ravelry is really a knitting and crochet site but I joined an ATC group on there and we do monthly swaps - except this month we are doing dolls!!! Is it any wonder I am confused?

I have been doing some postcard collages recently, and was particularly pleased with this one. I

love the image and wanted to show it off with a muted background, which is inked and stamped with gesso and distress ink. More of these in the future I think as it is quite nice to do something a bit bigger than an ATC.
