all at sea

Am quite please with the fishing boat in this work. It took a while to get scale and shape right.

I love using vintage denim for the sea, the colour and texture really works well.

Seagulls always make me think of fish suppers on the Ayr seafront!

More creations...

My stock is growing...

Experimentation!

I have used a picture plate from a childrens book from the 1950's along with fabric and ribbon to create this card. I love old children's books and the pictures have such an innocence about them. I have credited the book on my back of card label.

new baby girl! love this card!

Christmas is a coming!

Have created a few cards for Christmas. Alot more are needed!
