Hi!! I hope you've been enjoying the Christmas celebrations. Today I have a rather messy finger painting art journal page for you. I love creating these pages in my art journal. There's a real feeling of freedom. No rules, no instructions....it just comes along as I create. I'm often surprised myself with what I have [...]

I like to add a little personalised/handmade touch when wrapping my gifts. This year I have bought spotted kraft gift wrap and I've made these gift tags from pieces from the December Kit to go on the wrapped gifts. I've just cut a small piece of the washi tape from the kit to go along the [...]
I like to get organised leading up to Christmas. It's almost like the house needs a Spring clean for December. I just like things to feel clean and tidy for Christmas. So this year to help me get organised I have a new weekly planner that I am using. I have included one sheet in each [...]
