The sun came out for .......

....... my visit to Fife to see my family and friends.  I enjoyed catching up with everyone, just wish I could of stayed longer than the 2 days. Two days just isn't enough time to see everyone I love and I really found it hard to leave. It seems so much longer than the 10 days since I came back. I miss everyone so much, but hope to get back to Fife as soon as possible.

I've began to realise that all my artwork is starting to look really dark and depressing, but most creations aren't planned they just evolve, so is this what my inner self is feeling?

This is "Hope is the Anchor of our Souls"

and "Lost"

So on my return from Fife I thought I need to create something a little more cheerful. My inspiration was my beautiful little grandaughter Ellie-Louise and positive thoughts for the future. "Follow your Dreams" is a mixed media canvas and the quote reads: "Reach high, for the stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal." ~ Pamela Vaull Starr. I look at this canvas and still think there is something missing, so you never know I might add to it in time.

"Follow your Dreams" 

Having another clearout, really need to get rid of stuff that I just dont need or use and get organised. I found this altered matchbox, I created this few years ago and it will definetly not be getting thrown out. I've never altered anything for a long time, I will have to try and find some time to get back into Altered Art.

My little shop on Etsy has been doing very well over the last month, I must thank the Queen for having her Diamond Jubilee Celebrations as my top sellers have been ready-made bunting and my download Bunting Craft Sheets......So a very big thank you Queen Elizabeth.....
I have some new designs in the pipeline and these will be in my shop very soon :)

thanks for popping by :)
