365 Crafting Time Challenge
Hi friends! Happy Monday! Over on Instagram some wonderful crafters are getting together for a new challenge! Its the 365 Crafting Time Challenge! Well I decided to jump right in and it's been a week and I am so so happy I did! Even if its something simple like punching hearts out of paper to make confetti or just doodling, it's getting something done! I love getting up every morning and dreaming up what I might make or do that day! Here is a little sneak of what I have done so far in a little over a week!
I have done just about everything from make a cute wreath to painting to making a glass fused plate! To find out more about the challenge head over to Sabine's Blog and search #365craftingtime on Instagram!

New Supply Love
Hi friends! I know its been awhile but I wanted to do a quick post about some fun new supplies! Some of these I have been saving up for and others were garage sale bargains!
Here is the page I made using the new supplies! |
So here are my fun new supplies! |
I have been wanting to try Heavy Body Acrylics for awhile so I picked up two bottles of the Liquitex brand at Micheal's and went for it! I used the paint with a stencil in the middle of the circles and I love the texture it left behind! So much fun, I definitely recommend trying them out, its kind of like painting with lipstick!
I have been DYING to try out the Liquitex paint markers and I splurged (two months of savings) and bought these! I am so happy i did! The go over any color fabulously and I love that I can press harder for a more intense color or keep it light for a more transparent look! I am one happy lady, I cant wait to play with them more!
How cute are these Martha Stewart Washi tapes? I love anything rainbow so I HAD to have these! They aren't transparent so they are perfect for making cute ruffles and such! Love em!
So last Saturday I pulled up to a garage sale and saw these Prismacolor chalk pastels, at first I wasn't going to ask how much they were figuring it would be at least 5 to 10 bucks buuut I asked anyways and well I got them for 50 cents!!! I nearly started jumping up and down in excitement! I love them, the colors are so gorgeous and bold, I;m in love to say the least!
So what new supplies have you tried lately? Its amazing how refreshing just trying something new can be, whether it cost you ten bucks or fifty cents! Well that is all for me now, I will be back soon with a few fun tutorials in the mean time here is a new art journal spread I recently finished! Happy Wednesday!!!
