The Evaluation of Life.....

...today is Evaluate Your Life Day...there...did you know that? Neither did I until those clever lasses at Gingersnap Creations told me...and as it is a Reason to Stamp day too...what better excuse than to get inky, messy, make use of some Grungepaper and a rather brilliant Tim Holtz stamp :O)




I made a hanging piece using a Maya Road chipboard book page as the base and then using Claudine Hellmuth's Trad Tan paint (whatever else would I use huh?) and then Rock Candy Cracklepaint which I then spritzed with Glimmer Mists to create a background.




The centre piece is a Maya Road chip frame and the little roses are made with Grungepaper and the flower from the Studio 490 Dimensional Rose Art sheet. For the hangy bit I used some Idea-ology bits and also added a few bits as decoration on the frame too.

Thanks for looking....I would love to be able to tell you all about the Artsy Crafts weekend...but...it is a secret until the next weekend has finished...all I will say is that if you are attending this weekend coming you will have a BRILL time...cos it was FAB!
