Catch up

 It was a very busy Summer with very little creating.

We went away to visit daughter and family in Northumberland and Liverpool.

We had a new kitchen installed ( including the ceiling) and then went shopping for a new fridge and cooker.

I did create for the school swap book but forgot to photograph.

I am about 6-8 classes behind in the Wanderlust classes but i can catch up later.

We don't have a crop on Otley in August , So I am really looking forward to going next Saturday.

Anyway , after a quick tidy, I joined in with this weeks Wanderlust class to make two boxes.

The first is inspired by  the Japanese concept of Ikigai :

We painted with black gesso and added texture and embellishments on the top of the box.

I also added texture paste.

we made cards to keep inside.

We made a second smaller box to keep a mini album in.

I really enjoyed playing and being creative after a few weeks.
