Amusing Muses

Trawling the net for blogs to give you inspiration, I stumbled across Alberta and Ava's blog: Amusing Muses and fell in love with their quirky take on life, and their gorgeous artwork. Here is what they say about themselves

We're Ava and Alberta: sisters, teachers, and artists. We've been dreaming together since we jumped off our chest of drawers, believing we could fly. Our closet became our spaceship, a magnolia tree our secret castle, and our grandmother's garden our enchanted kingdom. Our mother taught us the joy of creating and the art of nonsense. We learned embroidery on our grandmother's front porch and heard bedtime stories about sirens and gorgons and panthers stalking the woods at midnight. We believe in magic and silliness, in sisters and dreams, in lavender silk dresses and bottle trees, but, most of all, we believe in the strength of the creative spirit. We still believe we can fly.

I think their work speaks for themselves,so please go and have a look, get inspired, and learn to fly!

Getting stylish with Carole..

I have also heard the phrase 'working in Jansonesque' style... and this is one phrase I often use!

I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, as I'm posting this on Christmas Eve.. mainly because I'd forget if I didn't!!

The blog I would like to point you in the direction of this evening belongs to the fantabulous scrapbooker Carole Janson. Carole's work is absolutely fantastic and to say I love it is a very big understatement! I personally had never seen work like it before. I admit I don't do alot of scrapbooking, but the techniques that Carole uses can be adapted to cardmaking - in fact, looking through her blog you may even find the odd card dotted around..

Here are a few of her beautiful layouts

Browsing through Carole's blog, you will also find altered items that have been prettied up!

I don't really know where to start telling you why I love this project - so just observe and love!

Here's the close up. I just absolutely love the way Carole layers up the flowers and 3D elements in her designs.

Calvin's Christmas home....

Well it wouldn't be Christmas without a tree would it? This rather cute mouse is the wonderful creation of Maddy who has also made him a new home to move into...
