We're So 80's at Moving along with the Times!!

Good morning all

We have a quirky challenge for you over at 

Moving along with the Times

our theme is 

So 80's

we would like to see anything that is 80's themed or 80's inspired

 -be it  colour style or anything else that makes you think

 - that's so 80's!!

I chose this cute and colourful card

using on of Tim Holtz Crazy birds

and created a background with Spectrum noir aquatints

these colours with the splashes that remind me of tie dye 

it made me think - yes that's so 80's

This is what I did

Sentiments and corners and splats(!) - Crafter's Companion Elements stamps

Bird - coloured with Spectrum noir aqua pencils

Background created with Spectrum noir Aquatints in primaries then bleached out with water to create the splodge effect

Hope we see you playing along with us this week

Good Morning all

Hope you are all bright and breezy this morning - not sure if I am or not but it's a good description of the weather! - it's been more than a bit fresh here on the North East coast - roll on summer!

I've been having an exciting couple of days (that's apart from the sickness bug - yuk!)
My older son left home over a year ago now and I've finally inherited his room as a craftroom.  I moved into the room to craft a while ago because he already had a lovely desk area - but the rest needed to be sorted!!  We moved the bed out at Christmas and swapped it with a sofa bed we had in the spare bedroom and I've now got a lovely craftroom with lots of storage - and a very clever work area built over the sofa bed!  - it's not finished yet still some shelves to put up and lots of sorting and organising to do - but I'm so excited. I do have a very clever husband - photos to follow!!

But I digress....

We have a new challenge starting at 

Fab'n'Funky Challenges 

hosted by our lovely Sharon

who chose the theme

All creatures great and small

I made a very simple card for a man friend's birthday 

using one of the Tim Holtz - Crazy Birds

I just love these - a stamp for all occasions!

This is what I did....
