The Big Jubilee Picture

By
As part of the Jubilee celebrations and as a local artist I was asked to take part in 'The Big Picture' This is an event that I took part in last year for the Masquerade Fair (see HERE) and it was such a huge success that we did it again to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee.

A picture of the Queen was distributed to all the artists taking part along with a square section of that picture - that was the part we were to paint - on the day (Monday) all the squares were assembled hopefully making one big picture.

Here is the section I painted


And here is how it looked all together


Didn't it look fantastic?
I'm really glad I took part - it was great fun and a lovely addition to the festivities.
Bye for now - Jacqueline xx

    What a brilliant idea and the finished result is marvellous! I love how you can still see everyone's style within the big picture.

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
