Windows in the Sky - Canvas using doll house window boxes

Dear Bloggers,
I had some doll house windows in my stash that I purchased sometime ago.  I wanted to add them to my canvas to add extra depth and dimension.  I was very pleased with the results but I fear the photo of the final project lets it down.  This is especially so because of the photos that are under perspex in the windows.  Several attempts at photographing it have not yielded any better results so here it is anyway..

            The side on view shows the wonderful depth that the doll house windows create.

Take 2 on Amy The Bridesmaid Layout

Dear Bloggers,
I was just looking at the LO I created showing my daughter Amy being Bridesmaid for her good friend Sarah.  It just looked a little unfinished so I changed it from http://www.jennygarlick.com/2013/04/scrapmatts-chipboard-special-treatment.html

Dear Bloggers,
The second of Finnabair's classes that I attended was creating the front and back covers for her gorgeous journal produced by Prima.  It was so much fun using the divine metals in her Mechanicals Range.

Attending Finnabair's Classes and Her Gorgeous work

Dear Bloggers,
Wow it is finally the end of term and time for a little catching up.  Term 1 was good but gee it was soooooooo busy so I have loved sleeping in the last couple of mornings and even having some naps in the afternoon.  They are sooooo therapeutic.
Now it is time to put the finishing touches to the work I created in Finnabair's Classes and download the photos of the day that have been sitting on my camera for far too long.   Drum roll - finally here they are.

A photo of the lovely Anna and myself just to prove that I really was with her and the messy aprons indicate work in progress.

Below are 5 of Finnabair's stunning Steam-Punk Layouts using her gorgeous new Mechanicals by Prima. Anna had these on display during her classes.

Oh I just love love love her style.

Finnabair's Class - and what I dabbled in at home afterwards!!

Dear Bloggers,
I was one of the lucky people who attended 2 of Finnabair's classes at Catchy Crafts last month.
It was an amazing day and I was thrilled to learn so much from such a truly talented lady.  Catchy Crafts was  a brilliant venue and the wonderful staff helped to make the day even better.  Afterwards I had a little dabble with creating my own journal cover on the front page of one of my Mixed Media Books.  I used some of the left over goodies from her generous kit and some of my own.

Sew Happy Tag Using Scrapmatts

Dear Bloggers,
The Scrapmatts' challenge for March is also to produce a tag.
In a previous post  http://www.jennygarlick.com/2013/03/this-chipboard-is-just-sew-nice.html

I created 4 tags using Scrapmatts gorgeous new range of Sewing chipboard.
The set was just begging for a fifth member but this time on the Scrapmatts ATC shaped as sewing spool.
