I have made a 'thank you' card for a friend. Now my friend loves Fairies and Purple so I thought this is the perfect card for her because I wanted to say thank you. I love Unicorns and Fairies so couldn't resist using both!</div>

Hello lovelies!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well firstly let me wish you all a</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy New Year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you enjoyed all the festivities!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love Christmas and New Year, but the run up to it is extremely busy for me at work. It only leaves me a very small amount of time to craft during that time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyhoo, a new year, means new projects created by me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So to start off with the 2018 creations I have made a very simple thank you card.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is actually one I have made for my wonderful hubby just to say thanks for a lovely Christmas!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love scrabble tiles so I've used the Scrabble Tiles clear stamp set from Creative Expressions.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I stamped out the letters for the words I wanted to create. I used foampads to attach to a white card blank. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used a black sketch pen to draw a couple of lines around the edges. To finish I added black and white twine and a fancy paperclip...(quite appropriate as my husband sells stationery).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A very quick card.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hope you like it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Thank you for taking the time to stop by.</div>

Hello lovelies!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here I have a canvas that I created to hang in my hallway. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I glued all my element's to the canvas, then once dry I applied gesso over it all.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then dropped randomly some pigment powder over the canvas and spritzed with a Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added the word 'Beautiful' and then flicked black ink using a small thin paint brush to add random spots to the finished look.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hello lovelies!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you are all well. I have some mixed media album pages to show you that I created a little while ago.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I absolutely love creating mixed media pieces. I love the feeling of it all coming together, you start off with just a plain canvas which after adding embellishments, materials such as ribbon or lace, painting and inking and spritzing, you then achieve a thing of beauty! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also like the fact that with mixed media, you just have to use your imagination and let your creativity flow.</div>

The theme is all about white. Now, you can incorporate another colour if you wish or go with a full white theme, whichever you choose we would like to see a white flower on your project. You may want to use a few white flowers or just the one...it's up to you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is a picture of some of the beautiful white flowers available from <a href="http://petallu.tictail.com/">PETAL LU</a> </div>

I decided to make a mixed media project for my design team project this time. I love mixed media work, and I have to say I am pretty pleased with how this canvas turned out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I first of all used texture paste with a stencil to create some bubble texture in random areas. I glued various Snip Art pieces and then I have used lot's of beautiful embellishment's which I have glued to the canvas. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I added some lace and washi tape and then also a picture of a butterfly with a frame over. I added some beads and then painted over it all with gesso. I used a couple of coats to make sure everything was covered how I wanted it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then glued the beautiful Petal Lu flowers to the frame. I sprinkled over the canvas randomly using some mica powder which I then spritzed with water and dried with a heat tool. I added the Beautiful sentiment which I stamped onto paper. To finish I splattered black ink randomly over the whole canvas. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think the Petal Lu flowers finish the mixed media canvas off perfectly. I now have this hanging on the wall in my hallway and I have to say it does look really pretty!</div>

Hello lovelies!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have so many lovely old photo's of my family, it is so nice to be able to look at them and think about the history that goes with them. I decided to start an Art Journal to use these beautiful photo's. Of course the start of the Journal is the front cover. So, using mixed media techniques I have picked out a beautiful photo of my mum as a little girl. I have co-ordinated the colour scheme of my project to match the photo.</div>

Hello lovelies!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't believe we are in December already. This year has just flown by. It's a busy time at work for me, I do enjoy the Christmas rush. I have to confess though that I've hardly made any Christmas cards except for design team ones! It's a time thing...eek!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway so as usual, the challenge theme is anything goes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I've made a quick and simple Christmas Card using one of the gorgeous trio stamp sets from Lili of the Valley. I've used the beautiful Petal Lu flower at the top of each stamp.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, it's a while since I posted for the <a href="http://craftingmusketeers.blogspot.co.uk/">CRAFTING MUSKETEERS</a> challenge. I had a year out and the lovely girls on the design team welcomed me back this month. I'm really happy to be back and working alongside a lovely team. </div>

Hello lovelies!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's time for another challenge over at </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://petalluchallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/">PETAL LU</a> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The theme is </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
'Anything Goes'.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For my design team project this time I've chosen to decorate a plain black 2017 diary.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have used one of my favorite digital stamps from <a href="http://liliofthevalley.co.uk/">LILI OF THE VALLEY</a> called </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://liliofthevalley.co.uk/acatalog/Digi-Stamp---James-Daisy.html">JAMES DAISY</a> </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've coloured using Letraset Promarkers in shades:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Frozen Lake - Capri Blue - Rock Pool - Pastel Blue - Ice Grey 1 - Ice Grey 4 - Rose Pink - Pale Pink - Baby Pink - Apple - Green Shoot</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The papers are from the Tanya Whelan 12x12 Rose Paper Pad. The 2017 numbers are from the stamp set Inkadinkado Gem Stone numbers. I've also used muslin, a black sketch pen, Sakura gelly roll pens Clear Star & Pink Star and finally Cosmic Shimmer Colour Cloud ink in Rose Blush. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've used a selection of dies, a ribbon slider and ribbon to create a page marker and of course the gorgeous <a href="http://petallu.tictail.com/">PETAL LU FLOWERS</a> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
