I painted a piece of grunge paper and cut into pieces. I stamped a selection of stamps and used a combination of Inktense pencils and distress inks to colour them. I stitched them all together and using matte medium glued them onto a piece of plywood.
Below is a few pictures of my bijoux crafting area, usually extremely chaotic and messy, but tidied up for the photo shoot. LOL!
Have a fantastic week. We're off to Harrogate for a few days, mmm I wonder if there are any nice crafty/ sewing shops! I'm sure I'll find some.
Happy Crafting xx
What a great sign you have made Paula, live the mix of patch worked stamps and colours. You certainly have a very tidy working space.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your few days away.

ReplyDeleteThat's one fantastic sign, Paula, Well chosen images, great arrangement, beautiful colouring. Enjoy Harrogate!
ReplyDeleteWOW! What a beautiful patchwork hanging Paula. That will look amazing on your wall. Didn't know you could machine stitch grungepaper so that's on the 'to do' list today. Have a great time in Harrogate and shop 'til you drop. Hugs, Jenny x
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely gorgeous. Hope you have a nice time in Harrogate. Art from the heart is there
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely wonderful Paula - the stitching together is fantastic. I can't believe you only got your sewing maching last year - your stitching is always superb. Love the 'door knocker' embellie and beautiful colours. Happy time in Harrogate. Nicola x

Stunning project!
ReplyDeleteYour craftroom looks like mine, in that I also share my room with the refrigerator. Apart from the refrigerator, it also has the washing machine, and the dryer. The sound of the washing machine is like music... LOL
