It can take a good amount of toil and laying around in poop to make a beautiful flower truly bloom. Obviously, the flower lays in the poop, not you.
This week’s Artist Trading Card celebrates the fruits of those labours.

Distressed Tea Chest With Aladine
After a couple of days away hosting workshops last week, and arriving home VERY late due to rail issues, I decided to give myself a day off. It’s a rare treat these days so I wanted to make use of it and have a little play time.
This coincided with the stockpiling of new goodies reaching ‘use it or lose it’ proportions so I chose to dive into those for this make.Read More »
A New Scan N Cut Experience Is Coming
As you know I tend to try and keep abreast of all things Scan N Cut so I have been eager to find out more about the Scan N Cut DX which launches in the US next week.
Whilst I still haven’t got my hands on the new machine, nor been able to pin down a launch date for other areas of the world, I have been able to do a bit of research into what’s new and compile a list of information and resources that may be of interest to those that are waiting to see what’s new.
Canvas Workspace Update

Artist Trading Card 140 – Replace Fear
Fear is such a disabling emotion, I would say. Fear of the unknown can have us sitting unable to move and wondering what will happen.
Over the years I have tried to replace this with curiosity – it doesn’t always work but I thought that it’d be cool to make an ATC to remind me of this.

Artist Trading Card 139 – Stronger Than Yesterday
Every day can be a challenge. Every little issue can seem like it’s dragging you down. The flip side of these annoying little niggles is that they build strength, resilience and character.
This ATC is a reminder that no matter what is going on today, you have come a long way and are stronger than you were yesterday.
Mixed Media Recipe Card 6
Got a little carried away with this week’s Mixed Media Recipe Card and really took my time over the creation.
Often I see dragons as a theme in creative projects. I’m not sure if it is the mythology or the scope for imagination that draws folk but I decided to see what I could come up with.

A Fabulously Foiled Greetings Card
With many big pride events happening around the country during the summer, it seemed daft that I didn’t make something to give a nod in the direction of the rainbow, so I thought I’d go all out and make something fabulous, darlink!

Big Fat Steaming Brew
A little something different in this post. I’ve been admiring journals and journalling for a while. The mixed media techniques, the thoughts and sentiments that make it into every creative page.
So, I decided to start John’s Journal.
