a JOYous day at IACW

Hi all

It's this months post over at It's a creative world for the simple things project. A project that lasts all year and explores the simple things in life with a word prompt every month.

This month the word is JOY and here's my take on it



I wanted to record one of the days of my life when I felt I experienced real JOY and happiness when I became trainer for the day with the Dolphins at Xel Ha ecological park in my beloved Mexico.

I created a push me pull me card so the picture popped out to reflect the elation I felt that day. Push me pull me's are so easy to create and when you discover the secret ingredient you'll say no way like I did .... well, maybe you will! I am always amazed at how simple the mechanisms are for interactive cards. To see how easy they are pop on over to IACW to see the post and wallow in the rest of the inspiration over there from the rest of the oh so talented creative girls.

Today I'm busy preparing for a Serif Digtal scrapbook artist 2 show for Create and craft TV on the 23rd at 8am and a Purple Cows show at 9am eek!!

Thanks for popping by, I hope you're well and happy and until soon Happy Crafting!

Love

Simple Things

Hi all

It's that time again over at It's a Creative World when the creative Girls share their take on the word prompt of the month for the year long Simple things project.

I love how we are all interpreting the words differently, so far we have had simplicity, time and honesty and this months word is CREATE. The projects are all taking many forms from digital scrapping to art journals, quilt making to my treasure chest so why not pop on over and investigate, be inspired and even play along!

Here's my project for this month...





An altered set of playing cards laminated with my Purple Cows Kool laminator that provide me with little snippets of inspiration to CREATE when the mojo won't play :) Read all about it on the IACW blog and check out the rest of the inspiration from the creative girls.

Thanks for stopping by ... can you believe I'm actually being organised with my blog posts? I have quite a few scheduled to publish ... I'm scaring myself LOL I will be back between these scheduled post to fill you in on 'stuff' in real time soon. As I write Stan and Ollie are great, Ollie has been out on the lead HILARIOUS! and no doubt I will share piccies soon :)

I hope you're well and happy, until soon
Happy Crafting
Love
