Hessian Hearts

Hello all!  It's sneak peek time here amidst all the watercolour wanderings and oxide experimentation.  I'm hoping to tempt you over to Destination Inspiration at A Vintage Journey to see what I've made with this month's travel bag contents.


I felt pretty at home with most of the ingredients, but the designated colour for this month was way out of my comfort zone.  I hope you'll have time to hop over and see how I coped!  Have a great week, everyone.

If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; if from the head, almost nothing.

    Gorgeous, Alison! Totally love everything about it! The crackled red hearts really pop against the canvas and are a wonderful part of your design. Like Sue, I also love the stencil addition! And the little letter blocks...awesome!

    Wow! Great project. I love the texture to it--the crackle hearts, the burlap, the cardboard stencil, the metal fixings, the globs of paint/paste.
