Inspirations

Hey - I'm here sooner than you might have expected if you read my last posting...I did get some computer time on the weekend and thought I'd share these links now because there are a couple of new challenges open for August that you might like to get onto.

Dina Wakley is doing a month of "Out of the Journal" for August. Obviously I won't be joining in, but a cool idea to try and create one canvas a week to exercise your creative muscle. Here's Dina's week 1 and others.
ALL of Chris Cozen and Julie Prichard's mixed media online workshops are on sale NOW until Sept 8th. I can personally recommend Mixed Media Melange

Mixed Media Melange with Julie Prichard and Chris Cozen

Check out some of what I did in that workshop here.
Mind Wide Open is a challenge blog with an image provided by Gail of Shabby Cottage Studio on the 1st of each month with a week for creating and then a week for voting. This is the image for August - you need to get on cos week 1 closes 7th August.

Check out the Mind Wide Open challenge here.

The ever-creative and generous Jennibellie has recently shared another Youtube video titled Crafty Solutions for using waste paint, inks and sprays. Some great ideas there.
And to finish today, check out Cynthia Schaffer's very cool free motion stitched sampler book.
Hope you get some creative time this week.
