Made With Love by Kat

Oh I'm having so much fun playing with my new watercolour brushes! I've been mixing painted backgrounds with stamps - I plan to get some card and make my own journaling cards for my Spring album, which I really look forward to sharing with you!

I have so many projects I need to share with you! I've actually had a touch of that creative disease where whatever you're doing you want to be doing something else - it's so annoying! So as soon as I start on a big 12x12 PL spread I want to be making a mini album. I start a mini album and see an amazing idea for a necklace I could make. I get out my jewellery making kit and spot my watercolours... and so on! However that does mean that I've got loads of great things to show you here just as soon as I've got them photographed. In the meantime, I'll leave you with this picture of an adorable little bear that I spray painted gold, and who now lives on my windowsill with my succulents (which are definitely the easiest plants I've ever tried to keep!)

I've spent the weekend merrily spraying things gold and I am SO pleased with how these vases have turned out. I used electrical tape to make a strip around one of the jars that would be left free from paint. I love electrical tape as it peels off easily, but you could use masking tape, too.  After spraying: Then it was just a case of choosing the colours of washi tape I wanted to use and adding a pattern: And voila! Two fabulous mini vases!
