ART JOURNAL PAGES




For some months now, as part of an Art Journal swap on the yahoo group Blissfully_Art_Journaling, Leanne and I have been exploring lots of themes and doing 2 double page spreads in both our own and each others journals.
This time round we delved into "self portraits" and these are my two double spreads I did in Leanne's Journal.

For this blog hop we will be running a ‘Find the Phrase’ contest, on each DT members blog there will be a question, once you know the answer to that question take the first letter on that answer as one of the letters of the 12 letter phrase. Then when you have all twelve letters they will make a two word answer, and once you have the answer please email it to designteam@robynsfetish.com to enter the contest. Also let us know on our group at SNR that you would like to take part to win 10 images of your choosing from the store

With Christmas coming up FAST, I thought everyone could use a gorgeous, cute digi image to use on their Christmas cards, so the image I have chosen to give away is "Stocking Stuffer"

Here's a card I have made with that image.

FINISHED MY AFGHAN


I started a knitted afghan when I was away on vacation in the States and finished it a few days ago. I love how it turned out and I am also quite proud of the fact I managed to crochet the edging as this is the first thing I have managed to crochet.

ON THE ROAD AGAIN lol

Singing Willie Nelson's song here as I type - and somewhat tongue in cheek singing - I just can't wait to get on the road again lol.
Yes we are moving AGAIN. And just for something different - moving COUNTRIES !
Since we got back from our 2 month vacation in the States, Doug has been unable to find work here in New Zealand : (
Anyways to cut a long story a little shorter - he was offered a job in Bendigo (Victoria, Australia) - and a two weeks trial for the job. This was 3 weeks ago and he has decided he will be staying on permanently.
So I will be moving over there permanently towards the end of next month too.
As you can imagine there is so much to organise/finalise here and its a lot for me to organise on my own.
Life is never dull - is it ?
Sometimes its down right scarey and stressful..... (soft smiles)
Will definitely still be in touch until I go and again, once we find somewhere to live over there, get settled in and get back online as soon as possible !

ROBYN'S FETISH DESIGN TEAM NAMED

The complete team of the Robyn's Fetish Design Team for this term has now been named.
Congratulations to all our new team members, please visit their blogs and congratulate them.
You will find their names and blog links listed in the side bar on the right hand side of my blog.

Details of the grand opening of Robyn's Fetish shop will be announced soon and a blog party and lots of fun things are planned - so stay tuned !!
