It's all just a little bit.....
The moon was the first item stamped using Cyan Chalk Eye and then the flower stems and lettering stamped over the top in Stazon.
I love these stamps and they always stamp really cleanly with a lot of detail. I wish I had time to do more of my own art, maybe even design a set of stamps or two!

Punch Art
I added detail fo the centre of the flowers using various shades of brads, and coloured the edges of the butterflies with chalk eye.
I added glossy accents to the flowers on the background paper to make them stand out.

The Lady of Shalott
While waiting for the paint to dry I punched out the leaves and wrote the title and a section of the poem on card, distressed these with chalk eye and cut them out ready to layer on top of the painting once dry.

From 32 degrees....
... to a full on British thunderstorm!! Having been away in Paris in heat of 32 degrees, I really did have to return to the great British weather and unload from Eurostar to a thunderstorm - fork lightening, sheet rain and crashes of thunder that sound like rocks falling on your head!
One highlight of the trip was a visit to the Eiffel Tower at night. I was aware that they lit the tower at night, ever since the Millenium firework display there, but was not quite expecting the light show I got:
