Hi, I hope you all well with all these bugs going round everywhere. This is a really short post as, by the skin of my teeth, I've finished my entry for
The Stampsmith Challenge! This month's theme is a picture for inspiration, using the colours Brown, Cream and Red, and at least one Stampsmith Stamp:
I altered one of those famous Ikea mirrors and turned it into a vintage style wall hanging of the very beautiful Marilyn
Monroe:
I also used Oxford Impressions large alphabet, cream chalk paint,
some seam binding, lace, handmade flowers and a few other bits from my
stash. I had real trouble getting a good picture of this, despite
trying on my camera and my mobile - the colours are much, much nicer in real life.
Bye for now!

What can I say - a triumph.
Marilyn looks perfectly at home and I love how you combined her image with the O.I. alphabet and I adore your colour palette.
I will be in touch soon.
