Fly Me to the Moon

Salutations Bloggers .

Seems so long between posts. 

Although the month has flashed by ,

I have been able to fit in a few pieces of arty scrapy goodness to keep me sane ,

 oh and a rad retreat as well.

but first lets go back to my last post and the Gauche Moon challenge.

*see the post below for the moodboard. 

Here is my spin on it .

A faux leather journal .

You can head on over to Gauche to check out the process of turning 

cardstock into a leather like paper product .woot 

Of course , brown doesn't float my boat, so I went with a black and white .

 another layout using a photo from camp mojo.

no need to explain, im sure you get who i am :) 

I seem to be creating so much more with mixed media , an outdoor painting area was needed.

This table is definitely getting a good workout atm.( thanks P.C.)

A Little Country Charm

Last Months Gauche Alchemy challenge was a little out of my 

comfort zone .Country Charm is not my homeland for inspiration,

and the mood board at first threw me off,all that leather and Brooooown :(

But once I honed in on the smaller images I found my inspiration.

I started with some texture using an old plastic placemat and textured paste ,

 added some of the gorgeous turquoise and white paint, then some inca gold in silver to highlight those lush textured patterns .

Out came some natural materials,hessian,muslin,natural ribbon

 plus a few metal elements and this baby fell together . 

This months Gauche Alchemy Challenge invites you to the Moon.

What inspiration do you see when you view this "Lunar" mood board?

I see NO colour :):):):)  A real challenge! :) :) :) this will be fun .

Don't forget to pop over to Gauche to check out the Alchemists Lunar pieces,

Unveiling all month for all artists out there to be inspired.
