I'm Guesting at ARTastic!

Hello and welcome back to my blog. I was asked by the very lovely Jane Howden at ARTastic to be the Guest Designer for this month. How exciting! Thanks Jane :)

Here's what I made:

The challenge this month is to be influenced by this stunning painting by Cathy McLelland and to use paint in our work.

As you can see, I was heavily influenced by the colours. I also used the birds and feathers influence in my title. My daughter and her bestie look nothing like each other but their personalities are so similar! 

I used a soon-to-be-released produt called Colour Crush to recreate the bright, sprayed effect on the background of the painting. Colour Crush is my new fave product - more coming on this soon!

All the paint I used was white – I stencilled with it, used it behind some of my Colour Crush and I used a white paint pen on my chippie feathers.

The chippie is from The Dusty Attic. I adore the whole range of these stunning feather chippies!

I hope you can join in at ARTastic this month! You can find the challenge here.

Happy scrappin'!
