Karen Williams - My Little Circus
Hi Shazza Here's my effort for Artastic this month Do you ever buy a bargain album kit for the album and not think
about what else is in it or a paper pad because you like some of the
papers in it- I do- quite often this challenge has allowed me to use
up one of those bits of paper that came in a pad I bought for some
of the other papers and then thought OMG how am I going to use that ! The paper in question was some Anna Griffin Circus paper- the print was so huge I thought there was no where to add a photo
let alone embellishments - but then this challenge came along and
it fitted perfectly with the inspiration painting I have all the requirements ( well I may have missed the horse
but if you squint the performing dog could be a horse)
The picture shows Nancy and Arthur in fancy dress- Arthur is a pirate and Nancy a Dutch girl- the journalling is about our chaotic house and the photo illustrates it as it shows Nancy trying to cut her nose with some plastic scissors! Hope its OK Karen
