My Blog List

Saturday, July 25, 2009


Well this is the one I'm the most happy with so I am making progress with this scrapping stuff. It helps tremendously they everyone is so encouraging of course. I am all fired up now and want to do more and more instead of getting bored with it. I love the bold colours too. Yes red is one of my favourite colours. Next I want to do some vintage stuff. Well if you spend a lot of time on the blogs people seem to call stuff from the 70's vintage, whereas when I think of vintage I think of the 30's or the Victorian era. I don't know if I'm growing older without realising it or that is supposed to be just a cool sounding word for old but I still don't consider anything that happened in my lifetime to be vintage!!!!! Rude!!
Well, okay, casette players are vintage ;-)

Creativity


I am a confessed image addict!! I collect them, search for them, devour them, am completly distracted by them. I have spent hours and hours in library at college going through National Geographic and World of Interiors. I still wondering why technikon subscribed to that expensive magazine when there was no Interior Design course offered there.
Well, after a long disgrungtled absence from my one true love, I am heading back head over heals into the thick of it again. While I did not miss it at the time, I'm begining now to be startled at the thought! Cleoni Cull, my 1st year lecturer was right, if you are creative you can't live without it. I guess she meant can't REALLY live without it. You can survive but who wants to survive? I want to thrive not survive. This was a report from the art school I when to after school. It's a bit of taking myself to task like my friend Louise and Cleoni have done.
I repent!! Art please forgive me :-)

Creative Kids



My beautiful Jelly Babies, I could make dozens of pages of these girls...let that be a warning!!! I'm inspired by their creativity, and how colourful the world of children is these days.
