Inspirations a Piece of Cake!

Huge Hello Everyone!!

 
WOW Wee! what a full on week!

Warning I'm going to be rather honest in this post so pop your protective gear on...



 
Well this week has been on of those..."Come on...you have to be kidding me!!" weeks
between work and study i think my head is going to explode!
I think it has to be due to my time of the month *sigh*
i hate admitting it but I'm a bit on edge and ready to full into a puddle of tears
Even thought i know I'm fine, it's just for a few days of the month my armour
is at the cleaners and my heart is on my sleeve...lol
So creating this week has been a little funny,
Usually this is my fix it moment...playing with paint and getting my dose of
creative happy time i feel better and ready to face the world...
But some how the paints were misbehaving and i spilt a bottle
of glimmer mist chalk on my layout...

Sadly not a very happy accident
I even sat in a corner and sulked for a little while...lol

************Deep breathe**********


Honestly i just wanted to curl up in bed and read a book...lol
OK! Enough of all that...

I want to share with you all the real me and the happy feelings that
today is a whole new day and the sun is shining

Have you seen my first creation for A Piece of Cake Designs??

Well if not here it is!





I sort of lept in to the pink....sort of like when you run and jump into cold water..lol

bringing a whole bunch of fun!

I had confirmation that the Workshop

the first lesson was sketching radishes?!
Well I'm all out of radishes!...lol
so i picked some cherry tomatoes of our little bush

and found the love of sketching coming back to life

I'm not a fantastic sketcher but i find just drawing {even if child like} is just fun :)

Huge Hello Everyone!!


Well i hope your week has been as Fantastic!

I have been flying by the seat of my pants with TAFE,

Man this Cert IV Accounting is definitely not for the faint hearted,
 i found i was doing more homework than TAFE classes this week?!

I'm happy to say i have gotten last week assignments out of the way and now
looking at three fresh one...lol I know I'm a sucker for punishment...lol

On the bright side i have made it a major priority to balance
my logic with my Art...
and it's working wonders, stress relief through paint and colour :)

I have been finding loads of inspiration with these work shops
and I'm super excited to use some more artsy techniques in my scrapbooking.

I'm also getting into the Art Journaling and the colour Journal

Finally found some time to create some fimo buttons i have been dancing around my head :)
