A bit Patriotic for IndigoBlu

We sure do good with pomp and circumstance don't we! Anyone who says they are not proud to be British when we put on a show must be mad! With my little bout of patriotism I used my hands and created a piece for IndigoBlu! Have a great bank holiday 4 day weekend, I am off for a hair cut since I look like I have been dragged through a hedge backwards!

Art Geeks 26

This weeks Art Geek's prompt is hosted by the creator, the lovely Christy of Gulfsprite. The theme this week is simple things, and the accompanying video to the theme Christy did the most gorgeous page with flowers. I decided to recreate it in my journal because I loved it so much! While I created my page I thought since Rich was nerding and the internet had a pretty good stable connection that I would also stream it live on Ustream. After I had finished broadcasting I decided to turned the hour and a half stream into a 10min youtube video, so the youtube may look a bit weird, that's because I was talking to my lovely viewers and answering questions as I went.

Discover Your Passion Card

Hi everyone, I created a Youtube video this week for IndigoBlu based on this card that was shown on the last Create & Craft TV show.

New to my ETSY shop

I have a new and fun item in my ETSY shop this week. These fabulous crystal dome's are perfect for altered art and mixed media and I must say I LOVE them.

Feel special today

Wow do I feel special today! Firstly I had a lovely lunch bought for me in town by the other half, and he bought me a graphic novel of my favourite comic so I have all the issues in one place. Then we come home and I have 3, get this 3 RAK's waiting for me!! How cool is that! The first is from the lovely Deb in Canada. I had been lusting after the stamp in picture 2 for years but never found it, and as far as I am aware it was discontinued years ago. The fabulous Deb found it and got it for me. I was only expecting the stamp which I arranged a trade for but look what she sent me!!!! OMG I HAVE C TAPE!!!!!!!! Love it all Deb thank you so much!

Next up is a lovely gift and a card from the fabulous Mel in the USA. The gorgeous card explains that she has collected from 4 different beaches in various states shells and driftwood especially for me! How lucky am I to have a friend like this!!!! Love it Mel thank you so much for your kindness and thought.

Last but certainly not least was a lovely package from Jen in the land down under, it only took 4 days to arrive, that's better than royal mail! She had said she was posting me a battery operated eraser but I never expected all this extra goodness too! Thanks so much Jen, love it all! Need to go battery shopping tomorrow!

I am truly blessed to have such thoughtful friends! Thank you all so much!

What's on my desk today? Well my Art Calendar update! I have been so late with it that I haven't updated it here because theirs no point when the month is halfway done! So here it is! I am doing Willowing's Lifebook course so May is following her lessons theme.

29 Faces begins

So its May 1st, this year is FLYING by, I feel like I have missed a chunk of it already! Here is Face number 1 for 29 faces. I don't think I will post every day as I don't want to bore my followers but I will keep it updated every few days with my progress! Here is number 1, sorry for the bad light I only got home at past 8PM and just taken the photo now.

This will be inked up and given as a gift to a dear friend who I admire so much, not saying who!
