Get Your Art On - Day 7...A VID!

It has been a month since I last did a video! how time slips. So below find yourself today's video for the week, lets cross our fingers that I get time next week aswell to do another one! I do enjoy making the videos, just time is never my friend.
Today for Get Your Art On, I finished off the pay below, the girl I painted a few days ago needed a home, so I glued her down and let loose.
I feel like I'm slowly getting somewhere with their faces, when I looked at her from a distance I realised that her head wasnt straight on her neck!!! I had to laugh, all you can do really lol. Focus so much on her face the rest is just legwork...wonky legwork apparently.

So yesterday I said I'd be sewing my remains of the day cover *insert mad laugher here* yes well, that didnt happen, with nights -5 the last thing this little artist is doing is sewing at her desk!! So I snuggled up and moaned to the boy how cold I was. Maybe tonight...but its already freezing so unless I layer up like a crazy woman I don't see it happening!


enjoy the video, something a little different for you for get your art on.

the boy arrives tonight for the weekend which is muchly needed! I need a hug, because I'm so damn cold!!! and of course next week, we are off on a mini holiday, but I'll be bloggin! the mac and me will be bloggin from the boy's couch in Sydney! and I can't wait, mainly because I get to go to a few places like Ikea, and Amazing paper, which is a book binding place I so desperately want to visit!

take care, enjoy your friday night, rug up and make some tea!

My Creative Space Thursday

Another week of creative crazyness at my house, with all my yarn being posted into the etha, I am spending my time relaxing, crafting and sending out some much needed snail mail. I used to send a handful of letters a week, but as I've become a mum the handful has turned into one every few months if Im lucky! So Im making time for the little things in life like letters and handmade cards...

below are my little thankyou cards to a few of my customers that have supported me every step of the way in my little dyeing business. All handmade even down to the little envelopes that Im working on at the moment.
I've had so much fun making these bite sized green cards with crazy mismatching envelopes, but its the thought that counds, I hope they make my girls smile.
Im also working on my gifts for no reason list, to send close friends little things in the mail just for no reason other than pure and simple thankyou. Im just putting together a little owl notebook for a woman I have not met, but has made an impact of my life.

Life is about giving and creating for no reason other than pure bliss.
