WOYWW: Some small projects


A while ago I came across a creative meme that is called What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday. It is all about showing what is going on on your workdesk and is hosted by Julia from Stamping Ground. I really like participating, because it is an easy way to show you what I have been working on, and it is fun to visit some other participants :)


I saw this on a Dutch blog called De Postfabriek last week. It is all about pimping postcards and creating more writing space! Easy and fun! I personally think this works best with bun illustrated postcard. Go have a look. There are a lot of posts about pimping a postcard there. Even thought the blog is in Dutch, there are a lot of images to inspire. Today is world post day! So send out a card! :D


The project above counts for Pin it and Do it. Please head over to Trish from Love, Laughter and a Touch of Insanity, for the Pin it and Do it Challenge! It is so fun! I participated many times before :)


This week I had a visitor on my desk. Luckily the painting was already dry!

This is another homework project. Blops of ink on wet paper. When it is dry I need to look what I see in it and work on that.


As seen here. This is one I already worked on with colored pencils. I darken certain parts or lighten them to create more contrast. I could work on it lots more. But these are supposed to be quick intuitive paintings. The leaves are brooches that I bought last week :D Also: the ones that I don't see anything in, I use as background for ATC's or make tags from it. So nothing goes to waste :)

  2. Hi, Thanks for visiting me, I will show the finished card when I get it done.
    Love your pussy cat, he is gorgeous and your painting. If I tried to do something like that it would look like soemthign a three year old had done, inctead of artistic and sophisticated like your does.
