Wow - I'm on a roll .....

Look what I picked up from my front door when I arrived home this evening.

These are my prize from PanPastelUk after Nikky did a bit of negotiating on my behalf as I'd already previously won the prize on offer. I did ask if she wanted to re-draw it but she told me to leave it with her and she'd see what she could do. Didn't she do well - thank you xxx

Then I logged into twitter to find I'd also been picked out for 3rd prize on the Arty Inklings Crimble challenge here.

And this is 3rd prize - wow lovely stash there and it's already on the way!!

And for my third piece of good luck we won £100 on the Thunderball lottery last Saturday.

Artful Times - Challenge 5

I set this weeks Artful Times topic of 'Ribbon & Lace'.  I used various different pieces of fabric, lace, hessian and a skeleton leaf to surround the main image.  I added fabric flowers and a silk rod tied with ribbon to the lace on the left hand side.   I coloured a piece of plain white twill with spiced marmalade and mustard seed distress stains.  I then stamped the word 'cherish'.  I found a delicate gold coloured butterfly in my stash which I think Sarah sent to me in an envelope swap which just fitted perfectly.  It measures approx 9" x 6".


Please feel free to join in with this weeks challenge and pop over and see what Neet and Von have made.  Leave us a comment, we love to hear from you.
