My Creative Space

I don't have many words this week but I want to say a huge "THANK-YOU," for all your feedback last week. It helped me enormously and I'm pleased to say that after some tweaking Witchy is now ready for some colour. I'm so much happier with this piece now and although I couldn't apply all your advice, it gave me heaps to consider.

I also thought I would share this little beauty with you. It's a fairly rough and ready bookmark which according to The Coach (just call him the Bookmark Police) breaks all the rules for allowable book mark widths....whatever....and features three of Petal's latest characters. I just adore them and say "phooey" to the Bookmark Police.

Thanks again to the lovely Kirsty for hosting another week of My Creative Space. I just love it.

  2. Petal needs her own label I think. I can see stationary, badges, stickers, t'shirt...the possibilities are endless. I LOVE her little people.

  3. LOVING the witch. She is looking suitably bewitched. You well has magic skills. And holy wowser Batman, the Bookmark Police?

    The only time the police should be involved with bookmarks is when I'm reading a true-crime novel.

    Lordy!

    However, whilst all this creative stuff is nice and all, I would like to point out that I am still waiting for Paris Part III.

    Still waiting.
