BAD BLOGGER BUSY MAMA/CRAFTER!!!

Things around here have been crazy!!   I have had a few crafty projects due - one of which I was thrilled to be asked to be Artified's  first Guest Designer trialling their new Mixed Media Kits! I love that Melissa has all the new Mixed Media goodies in her store, and now she also has a store you can walk in and purchase from - and she will be holding exciting classes there - including some classes with some of my artsy idols!  Stay tuned for more information!   
Here are my creations for Artified - I loved creating them - why not pop over to Artified and see what you can create with their new Mixed Media kit!!!

First up I created a canvas - My background was book paper, black and white spotted serviette, gesso, mod lodge, then Gelatos, Finnabair stamp  - doiley from Artified, I then hand cut a heart from book paper, adhered it to the canvas and glued lots of wood veneer hearts and stars to the heart with a metal number 1 from Artified in the centre.  I then covered the heart with Claudine Helmouth Red paint also from Artified, when that was dry I covered the heart with Dusty Attic clear gloss and allowed that to dry.
I glued my quote around the heart : "beauty is not in the face beauty is a light in the heart.
