The theme of our blog hop is "Favourites Things"...so I thought I would share my favourite things with you all....
Firstly their is my family, my hubby Bill and my two furbabies, Tiger and Cleo...
I would say its a toss up as to what comes next... but I think probably riding my Harley Davidson would win, there is nothing that compares to that feeling of absolute freedom as you cruise along a highway on a sunny day....
Then there is my favourite colour orange, I know a lot of people don't like it, but I absolutely love it along with black (which we all know isn't really a colour, lol)...
Oooohhhh now I couldn't do a post on my favourite things with out mentioning my favourite chocolate... now I must warn you read on at your own risk these are highly addictive.... it's Raspberry choc bites made by Capricorn.... so, so delicious.... everyone should try them, or though maybe not, I don't want everyone buying them and there being a shortage...lol...bugger just telling you about them makes me want one now or maybe two...lol...
So now that you know all about my favourite things in the world.... I would like to share with you my mixed media canvas I created in this theme.... Not only does it depict some of my favourite things but it was created using my favourite crafting products, Scrap FX, Helmar, Impasto and my Silks and Sprays....I hope you like it...
I used the fantastic Scrap FX "Steampunk stencil" to create the background.... then layered it up with lots of fabulous chipboard pieces.... I even made use of the external border from the "words of love" chipboard set... I cut it to form the two corner borders on my canvas....
ScrapFX pieces used:
Steampunk stencil 2012165
words of love 2013050
Play Ground Alphabet, small 2012306
Play Ground Alphabet, large 2012305
Arrows, fancy 2012374
Scribble Heart, small 2013043
Adore Words 2013065
Now, hopefully I didn't loose you in this long post.... so from here you should jump on over to Elizabeth's blog for some more inspiration....
