I'm here today to let you know it's time for the last of my trio of creations as a Guest Designer for Artist Trading Post this month, and it's my favourite of the three - saving the best for last, I hope. See what you think...
The theme at Artist Trading Post this month is Crafter's Workshop Stencils, and as you know I do love a stencil.
I mainly find myself using them with texture paste, and I've tried embossing ink this time too. The result is a journalling spread which gives my soul solace in what has been a very busy work schedule - some breathing time amidst the chaos. It uses one of my most loved quotations (also below).
I hope this sneak peek will tempt you to take a look over at Artist Trading Post. And I'd like to thank the fabulous Kasia Krzyminska for inviting me along to play this month. I've had a wonderful time.
Thanks to all of you, too, for your visits and comments. I'll be announcing a candy winner soon... promise!
Learn to be silent. Let your quiet mind listen and absorb.

At first I'm sorry Alison, my kids are on holidays, also still working for my part and a lot of urgent tasks awaiting, so it will be hard to catch-up with all posts from you and some other craft friends this summer and read all the details..
I'm going to look at this anyway, also have a look on your previous makes, just my apologies if I don't leave you as many comments I'd love to during the summer. Hugs, Coco xxx

Deep breath.... slowed mind... newly relaxed... another deep breath..... just what I needed Alison. Your journal pages were just what I needed... now I'm revamped, reinvigorated and ready to paint again. Loved your project. j.

Oh Alison I've really missed being in the blogging world as I used to. I feel like I'm getting right back into it. I've really missed your blog, so many wonderful words and projects. Lots and lots of inspiration too :) I've been looking after my Mum for the past year who sadly passed away in April and I'm just getting back into my mixed-media stride again. Thank you for the inspiration. Michelle xxx
You little minx, you know full well I will have to follow your link now that I have seen that gorgeous blue shade - and an arch shape. Looks exciting. Sorry I cannot stay around - must move on (guess where to?)
Hugs, Neet xx
