Something Useful

Project By Sam Crowe

This week the SplodgeAway DT were asked to do a colouring project. Well, I racked my brains, this should have been easy for me, I love colour, I got a Distinction in colour in my Interior Design course.... I SplodgeAway ALL the time!!! BUT NO, NOTHING CAME TO ME? Then I realised I was putting myself under too much pressure. Colour is everywhere, Suzicraft sell some gorgeous Distress Inks, Adirondack Inks, Cosmic Shimmers. beautiful coloured card and paper, everything you need, and I have most of it! But you don't have to try to use it all at once. A little mix up here and there is great, or just using separate mediums on their own often produces some lovely effects.

I decided to make something useful. I didn't have to even think about the project because everything I do has colour in it, my SplodgeAway mat never leaves my side!! So this is it, A peg stuck to the back back of a lovely stamped image (well I think so) a good old Splodge of colour with my distress inks, a bit of colouring with my Spectrum Noirs and a splash of Cosmic Shimmer on the pegs and there you have it - A note holder, a book mark or simply a little something to keep your receipts together in your handbag. Simple, Pretty!

Thanks for Stopping By
