It’s my turn on the n*Studio blog today! Which means that it’s time to share last month’s project with you here! In fact, I have two to share this time, because I seem to have missed one…
Each Day is a New Adventure
Last month the n*Studio Creative Squad was asked to try something new in our art-making.
I had just bought a brand new set of Ecoline Brush Pens, and I decided to break them in on this little journal page, using some of Nathalie’s stamps.

Colours Are My Friends
Aren’t you wondering what I was wearing whilst creating this journal page? Well… my new apron of course!

Enjoy your Wednesday!

It’s Wednesday today, so that means there is a new blog post from the Mixed Media Art Crew up on Birgit Koopsen’s blog!
The theme I worked with is Alphabet Soup and as you can see: that’s just what I started out with!
It transformed into something completely different though. Visit Birgit’s blog to see the end result.

Free For All
Last month the n*Studio Creative Squad didn’t have a theme, we could just do whatever we liked!
I have piles and piles of printed paper sitting under the desk in my workspace, waiting for a fun project to use them on.
Whilst sorting through the prints, I also came across an illustration I did a couple of years ago.
And that’s how one + one became this:

Pattern Lovers Love Patterns
Last month the n*Studio Creative Squad assignment was to play with pattern, in my case using Nathalie’s Santiago Stencil and the Embroidery Stamp Set!
And because Harold and I were redecorating the living room, I thought I’d alter a couple of plain white tiles so we can use them as coasters.
