Crafting Musketeers Challenge #19 – Anything but a Card

 

Hi Everyone

MJ can honestly say that these challenges come around so quickly because she looks forward to them so much and we hope you do too.

This month’s sponsors are Delicious Doodles and the challenge is Anything But a Card.  That’s it. So you have lots of crafting scope so why not go for it!  Use your imagination and get creative!

The prize will be some images from the sponsor

MJ chose to do a Christmas Decoration using the beautiful Mistletoe Kisses image.  What’s not to like she is fabulous.

 

 

She is coloured using Spectrum Noir Pens and Pencils.  The Frame and Snowflakes were cut using a Cameo Silhouette.

Finnabair October Workshops - Journal – At Last!

 

Hi Everyone

At last MJ  has managed to get on here and show one of her projects from an absolutely fantastic weekend of workshops with Finnabair.  The workshops were run by the fabulous Sue Tucker of Art Workshops.  Gorgeous projects and stuff to use on them and more biscuits than you could shake your tail feather at!…lol

The workshops were so well organised that Churchill would have been envious!

Anyhoo, here is a left-handed (it may catch on yet!) journal that MJ did back to front (ooops!) and is still working on (when she gets the time).  The piccie is rubbish and we think that is once again MJ’s terrible photo skills.  Not even pic monkey could help her out on this..ho hum.. but we are sure you will get the idea - we hope!

 

 

Sorry it’s a short one again but onwards my friends.

We hope you have been inspired.
