I am an Artist

The lovely Dyan Reaveley says we are all artists and should write it in our journals... so here is my attempt.  I drew all the birds and shapes and flowers free hand using various black marker pens ... ha ha... free they are.... following tips from a new book I just bought called 'Creative Doodling and Beyond' - now you see why I like to use stamps most of the time as my drawing is not really very good. Sad really as my Dad was a wonderful artist.... Mum not - so obviously I inherited my non drawing skills from her.  Her handwriting was wonderful and Dad's not ... you see where I am going with this.... blame Mum and Dad lol.  If only they were here to give me some tips... sadly when they were here I did not do any art - only crafts.
After drawing I sprayed the pages using Turquoise and Pink Dylusions inks... what did I do before I got them... and used a couple of stencils with water for the letters and numbers in the background.
I enjoyed playing so that is the whole point of the exercise.

Journaled Hoo Hoos

So my lovely friend Dyan suggested I journal my hoo hoos as I wrote woo hoo and boo hoo in the same sentence in a message to her the other day lol.

Here they are, Woo hoo, Boo hoo, Yoo hoo, Wahoo and Twit Twoo....

thought I had better add the Wahoo picture as a lot of folks won't know what it is... a lovely white fish wonderful to eat and horrid to look at.

I have used inks from Dylusions, stamps from Lost Coast and Dylusions and a lovely owl from whoo knows where... and a couple of Dawn Bibby cutout itty bits.

Words and more Words

Trying to teach myself to write - not having much luck really... oh to have nice handwriting... but I am trying lol .

The backgrounds were created using the fab inks and stencils from the lovely Dyan Reaveley - I love them all x
