Hope

Hi
I'm back in blogging land after an eventful week!
I went to stay with my lovely friend Rosie for a few days and after that I spent some time with mum. Today we went to see dad in the hospital....very emotional, but I'm so glad I went.

This is my favourite new stamp from Invoke Arts. I love it so much I've sent off for the whole set - so look out for lots of heart themes coming up.
Even my daughter was taken with this image - she thought it would make a great tattoo! Mmmm.....I shall be watching her very closely in the coming weeks!
I've got loads of stuff to keep me busy.........art dolls, swaps, houses (see Rosie's challenge), heart ATCs plus I'm making a Frida arch book (the Invoke Frida stamps have just arrived!) so watch this space!
Take good care of yourself

Frida Shrine

Just a little Frida shrine I made last night.

I started with one of the lovely Invoke Funky House images stamped onto a background I'd previously created using Adirondack Colour Wash Sprays.

I love Tina's idea of clear embossing over the top of your work - it really accentuates the colours.

Here are 3 similar backgrounds I made at the same time. I just used 2 colours; Lettuce and Stream. Hope to buy some more soon though! Thanks for the inspiration Karen.

Happy crafting!
