doodle Art ?

DOODLE.to scribble idly,without thought
or subject matter - drawing or marks made thus

I love to draw this for me starts with a Doodle
If I like it,They go on to be made into a more detailed
drawing, painting or design


After redrawing the poses,the mouse in the teapot
above is now sitting under the toadstool.
I tried colouring it up with watercolour paints & pencil crayons.

I am a little out of practice with watercolour painting.
I used to paint everyday!, now its more like a couple of
times a month.
And while its not the best I have ever done its
certainly not the worst.....worth another go!


I would love to hear you comments!...
Till then I'll keep Doodling!x

Merry & Me

I have two Birthday in November,Both my big sister's
Angela & wendy.
So out comes my art supplies so I can design some cards
Whenever I am looking for inspirations
I find help by searching through
my very large stack of craft magazines first...

For awhile I have be thinking of doing some
charactors baised on a girl & her playful dog
A dachshund called Merry ....




So I happened to find these two girl charactors
in 'papercraft inspirations' march & september issues
which were just what I was looking for...






I hope you like my card Ive decorated it with paper
& flock flowers enamel pink flower charm,
crystals, a glitter paper dress & birthday tab


Keep posted for the on going adventures of Merry
the happy dachshund & her very best friends....

ehEK MESS!

Some say 'messiness is a sign of creativity' I have
forgotten who told me that little gem!
and nomally I'd agree.
What they didnt say is that you can get to a point
where your mind gets a bit messy too!
with all manner of details,thoughts,ideas,
bills to paid,places to go,problems to solve,
all demanding your time!

I know alot of people who like things messy
sometimes you can come up with good ideas
and be inspired like that!

I am not one of those people
I quite literary like all my ducks in a row!
and I think a few maybe hiding under the sofa
and behind the cupboards!x

So I am taking some time out to chase them about!
and make some space in my over clogged brain
and my overclogged flat!
Starting here


Let the spring clean (I mean spring clear) start now!
