Playing with Calico Crafts

Hi all!  I'm so glad you've dropped in today... I'm absolutely thrilled to announce that I've been invited to become a full-time member of the Calico Crafts Design Team.  I guested for them a couple of times last year and had an absolute ball playing with the exciting and eclectic goodies they stock.

So today I'm over at the Calico Crafts Blog with my debut project as a full team member, and I've been having a ball again - indulging my passion for texture to the full!  It would be lovely if you had the time to pop over and check it out.  Perhaps I can tempt you with this sneak peek...


And in case you missed it, I made a return to PaperArtsy as a Guest Designer this week.  If vintage rustic texture (as at Calico) doesn't do it for you, how about glossy steampunk instead (over at PaperArtsy)?!

Thanks for stopping by.  It's been pretty busy around here, so I hope to catch up on some visiting over the next few days...

What do I make of all this texture? What does it mean about the kind of world in which I have been set down? The texture of the world, its filigree and scrollwork, means that there is the possibility for beauty here, a beauty inexhaustible in its complexity, which opens to my knock, which answers in me a call I do not remember calling, and which trains me to the wild and extravagant nature of the spirit I seek.

I'd love to enter this in the Anything Goes over at Simon Says Stamp's Monday Challenge, but I don't know if I'm allowed to send you somewhere else to look at it... I'll live if you have to disqualify me!!
