The Queens Jubilee...


Unfortunately despite all my good intentions I didn't get to see any of the celebrations today. I have had my nose to the grindstone from morning until dusk !!

Had a lovely surprise yesterday though when the lovely Ruth popped into the studio to show me her Union Jack dress I had inspired her to make. Doesn't she look fab in it. I am soooo proud of her.


She was going off to a school do and had matching shoes and pinny. Good on you Ruth.


Unfortunately my Jubilee dress isn't even cut out, lol.. Maybe tomorrow..

I did however stop all my work at about 11pm to make a Jubilee canvas.




Enjoy xx

The British queen would look awesome when she had a dress (and stockings!) like that!

Really great art! I love the colors.
hihi..Would the queen know how much her influence is on us, cardmakers and other crafters?
Have a nice day,
Henny

You are so fun, and full of life! What an inspiration. I wish we could have you teach where my studio is at www.artsanctuaryindiana.com. Is there a calendar somewhere of upcoming workshops? I am getting ready to order the inks and a few stencils. Would be awesome to learn about them from the designer.

Keep Smiling,
