I Can Do This!

Well I did warn you there was more! Paper Artsy Fresco Paints(Vintage Lace, Orchid and Pansy) but with Crackle Glaze this time! 

Oh what fun I am having and with a quiet month  I have the chance to take part in some challenges I've not visited for a long time.  So this piece is for the Frilly and Funkie Challenge Blog where the theme is New Year Resolutions. This is not so much a resolution as a mantra! 

All my life I have had a hang up about always looking right - wearing the right clothes, hair all in place, always mascara ...... you get the picture! But hey I am retired and get my bus pass this year, so it is about time I loosened up a bit - hang around in PJs if I want and let my hair go another day (I might not manage the mascara though.........). 

This was the closest quote I could find in my (ever expanding) stamp collection - not really the world expecting me to be someone else but me!

As well as experimenting with the paints I have also been making flowers with some different types of paper.  I used 140lb water colour paper for this one.  It was a little stiff to mould when wet, but I love the way it holds it's shape.  

Do hop over to Frilly and Funkie HERE for some fabulous DT makes - I always follow the blog as there are some wonderful tutorials and how to's and great inspiration, but nice to get the chance to join in this month too.

Have a lovely weekend x
