Mixed Media Day is here...

Marion arrived this morning right on time at 9.30am and our class got started at 10am - quick moving and not for the faint-hearted (but fine for beginners) our nine ladies have had a great day.

Marion getting ready.... 

 Using framed mirrors from Ikea for the base, acrylic paints, PaperArtsy stamps, embossing powders, Pearl-Ex powders and K&Co papers, there has been a whole lot of creativity going on around here.  

Plus home-made sarnies for everyone and mini muffins - got to keep everyones strength up!!
Will post pics of the finished article soon!
