There are some creative souls in the art, mixed media, art journalling and scrapbooking world that truly inspire me.
Finnabair is one of them.
I love her style, I love her techniques, I love her products, I love her creative philosophy, I love her positive energy and I love her humility.
I know I'm on her Creative Team and of course I'm meant to say nice things. This is not a "suckup". Even if I were not on her team I would still be saying the same things, and I'm sure there are many, many, people who admire her as I do.
So, I thought I would make a page about her.
I know she loves to drink tea and uses tea bags and tea stains in her work. So, I popped Finn in a tea cup, gave her some 'mechanicals' wings and a crown, filled a tea bag with her glass beads and splashed some black tea stain onto my page.
A detailed product list is on the Finnabair Blog HERE.
All products used including Finn's beautiful Cling Stamps, and Mica Powders can be purchased from Mixed Media Place HERE.
Thanks for visiting today. Wishing you a creative week and inspiration in abundance.
A fantastic idea and a stunning make, a truly worthy creative dedication to this wonderful lady whom I have been lucky enough to meet on several occasions....
