SHABBY CHIC


ALL  GROWN UP !!!!!
this was THE PERFECT TITLE for Ella in this pic 
she slept over night at our home
 and we went out for brekie the next morning
she decided to put some lipstick on when I was applying mine 
"you are such a little darling .. I love you so much Ella Jai   xoxo "

paint splashes and tearing = GREAT FUN !!!!!




isn't this dress form just divine?? 
designed by Steph for IMAGINARIUM DESIGNS 
I used two versa color inks
tea leaves and crimson copper




thanks for dropping by everybody
your words make my day .. very special

    I bet Ella just loves hanging out with her cool nana, who wouldn't? too bad you live so far away my dear, or else I'd go for a girl's night out with you and Lindy for sure. The previous ladies have said it all so eloquently and beautifully, I am echoing each and one of them adding a loud "hear, hear" and banging my table. I love the pages where you have used really dramatic colour combos, they are utterly striking and divine! xoxox
