Doodling....

I have just a little creativeness to report... The other night I sat at my craft table while everyone else was watching tv.... I just started doodling, came up with this little entry in my art journal... I just had a background of left over paint that I had slapped on a page so not to waste it, so nothing really creative... and with my journaling pen just went off on a doodle journey...



This was something I also did, got carried away with the pencils this time.... Had to cut her out as I did her on a scrap piece of paper, I have now stuck her in my art journal... need to come back and do something not sure what just yet but happy with her to wait a while...




This is something I did this evening... just can't seem to stop drawing again... The photo is not the best, lights not so good at this time of night....





A little scared to add colour to her, but might do it some day...

Art Journal... It's your life.....

Uks has a journaling prompt this week.... My head spins at this thought but I have been sitting at my craft table this morning thinking about words and using magazines to find these words... and have come up with this... (I have just realised that I need to add a word to this and that word is TOO!!!!!!)

It should read "It's Your Life Too Live It".....



The only thing now is to believe it and live my life.... being a stay at home mum and a wife I have slipped into a blur and have lost a little of me and who I am... I now have to find the happy medium and start to live my life as well without feeling selfish for doing so....

The things I do!!!!

With my little lady off school at the beginning of the week and me not feeling the best laryngitis (more antibiotic) we decided to get one of her Christmas presents out and work on it together, well I say together I knitted, Lolly stuffed and stitched (with assistance)... The knitting kit had the pattern for the larger dog but there was plenty of yarn left over so I knitted up a smaller one... So this is 'Lucky' and her puppy, don't think puppy has a name yet though probably just pup at the mo!!


I feel slightly chuffed as I don't call myself a knitter and was really unsure if I could help Lolly to do this, but I am really please with myself and how 'Lucky' turned out and more so that Lolly is pleased too!!!!

Art Journal update....

Just sharing my next page in my art journal... this took some doing as I really struggled to journal on it... This seems to be my main trouble the journaling, not sure always if what I am trying to say comes out the way I want to say it or even how to say it... I often think of something good (well I think it is good) but either forget it before I've had chance to write it down in my journal or don't think it is good enough in the end...



I really lack confidence in me and feel this is something I so need to work on... So hopefully working along side the girls on the UKs Art Journey will help me find myself so to speak...
