So the time has come at last to share my work done for
My Creative Scrapbook Kit Club this month.
In future I will be able to share earlier, actually I didn't realise
that I was meant to be sharing all along as I am actually working
with the current kit for October & not the newer November kit.
I will be putting up the photo tutorial for this soon and
then....tadadadada!! The video tutorial!! Which I must tell
you is NOT 2 minutes long LOL! It's a wopping 20 minutes
so I'll forgive you for not watching :) {in fact I may even pay
you not to watch LOL}. That's just me being shy :))))
If you are wondering who the gorgeous boys are they are NOT MINE!
They are the handsome sons of my Australian friend Leonie Neal-Dawson
who is a highly talented mixed media artist and produces very
inspirational work! She sent me the most AMAZING canvas in return.
The Mixed Media Design Team is a new addition to
My Creative Scrapbook & it's focus is to be on education,
which suits me to a T because I love tutorials!
Even if you don't subscribe to their kits {which everybody knows
are the bees knees of kits in the shabby chic genre} following their
blog will provide you with a steady stream of daily inspiration.
Apart from some of the mists, the gauze, the paint & the actual 12"
canvas all the rest you see here comes from the My Creative Scrapbook
Mixed Media October kit available for sale HERE.
I used all the keys and all the dangles on this piece!

****On another MORE BORING note my internet troubles are
still with me - for 17 days now we have had an unstable line &
I am able to get online for a couple of hours a day after spending
a couple of hours trying to log on & resetting the router a gazillion
times - today I reported our internet provider to 2 consumer
watchdogs in the hopes that someone may actually arrive
to attempt to get to the source of the problem!****
That means I've been a lousy commenter this month & I apologise :)
