NEW COUNTRY LOOK....ADDICTED I AM

JUST THOUGHT EDIT: this collage l did in April would go very nicely in the shed all pink and girly and it's a little squashed over the stairs where it hangs right now

Hows this for a shed found photo on Home Sweet Home.....a look l hope to achieve in mine soon....delivery next Monday..whey hey!!!
Bit late getting out of bed again yesterday so late going shopping the www and crochet playtime is just so much fun first thing in the morning

Wanted to look in a fabric shop l've not been in for a while..Simon Boyd in Shrewsbury and a wool shop l couldn't find last time we were there...found it on Sunday but it was closed wasn't closed yesterday though!!.....

OOOOOOPS!!!.....A huge bag of colourful yarns later and 5 metres of fabric to play with

got cracking as soon as we got back and brought my sewing machine down from the tiny work space l have now....did l say l'm excited about the new 'shed'!!! hehehe

Made a couple of rosebud pillow cases....objected to buying them for £18+ per pillow case just because the look is trendy.....made mine for about £4 each

2metres of fabric at £6 a metre and used about 2/3rds of it lots left over to make some patchwork cushions or a bag maybe..watch this space

Also made 8 basic cushion covers and again lots of bits left over to make bags or patchwork with...watch this space!! lol

Never really been into the COUNTRY LOOK before but have become a bit addicted just lately....funny though hope l found so many bits and pieces about the house to give me the look l want so not much to buy to complete this new look

DONE 80 COLLAGE SCRAPBOOKING LO'S ALL TOGETHER

l've caught up with quite a few scrapping important events with these collages

so fast and love the clean simplicity of the LO'S.......and so much fun

Just need to print them all off now......Might be expensive! lol

It doesn't show up for some reason on these but when you print them the added written info does.....may try some 'titles' in photographic form then add as a photo

WORKS ON THESE TWO......

cCollage of the Parents Day Wkend in Catterick April 4th 2009

Mr T loved the collage...lol

Thanx Lynne for the inspiration....l'm hooked

IN THE PINK FINISHED BUT NOT HUNG YET

An artist friend said it looked better on a white wall...have to agree she is right

went for 'less is more'...took out quite a few of the small forground die cut flowers....cant wait to start the next one will have to be a small canvas next all l have for now but going to try doing a canvas from scratch found some untreated canvas in loft.....all l need is a basic frame

BEGINNINGS OF 2 FLORAL COLLAGES

Should have been a lime and aqua flowers first the inspiration from a duvet cover....but the printer ran out of cerise ink so wont print anything....must buy a new printer

So l just played around with all the colours and wallpapers l had for now

added a few smaller die cut flowers too not sure what the end collage will be like yet but love the flowers l have so far large ones are about 12" and the smallest about 1"



hehehehe like scrapbooking on a grand scale.....very relaxing though cutting out flowers
