Disco Doll


Leonie's Fab Friday Challenge #7 - little bit of glitter.

This disco diva is made from purple wire with a fimo head adorned with silver wire hair. She looks like she's had an electric shock!! The base card has been edged with fluid chalk inkpad, wisteria. I used a piece of double sided acid free polyester sheet to adhere different shades of purple ultra fine glitter to to make a matt for the base. Silicone glue has worked to stick the wire doll to the card but a bit can be seen on the 'skinny' body.

I love having a go at Leonie's challenges and whether they turn out good or bad, who cares? I'm having fun. Thanks Leonie.

National Motorhome Show Peterborough




Last Thursday we packed our Motorhome and headed off to Peterborough for the National Motorhome Show. Held on the showground it is one of the biggest outdoor shows of its kind in the country. Toby loves it. Well, he loves going anywhere in the motorhome. He was as good as gold and enjoyed every minute. You see, he can jump onto the seats quite easily on his own, find his food and water and, more importantly, his toilet! without any help. He has always travelled with us even to the I.O.W. so is a 'seasoned' holidayer. Here are a few pictures of him whilst away this weekend.

A Sunny Day


It has been a lovely sunny day today and Toby has made good use of the warm sunshine. Considering his sight is limited, he managed to walk down 3 steps, along a bit of path, up one step to the decking and find his old sunbathing spot. Do you think he is having us on??

Leonie's Fab Friday ATC Challenge #6 - Holey Moley


BLACK HOLE


This is my attempt at this weeks challenge. On a black base card I used Perfect Pearls in a spritzer and with a paint brush to try to emulate a black hole in the Milky Way. I had a go at another ATC which you can see in my Flickr photostream.
