Someday, the altered art you make today will be
old, faded, falling apart, and someone else will salvage the bits and use them
in new altered art.It's the best that any piece of art can hope for

Crafters block today






well I am a poorly gal... but thats no excuse. I am taking part in an altered jigsaw swap in which you start with six pieces of an interlocking jigsaw and choose your own theme... you then send a piece out to 5 other people who alter it and then return to you. Vice versa you alter a jigsaw piece for them. I have done four peoples but am stuck on the last one... RETRO Advertising.... I ask you LOL
Still have my own to do as well, my theme is much kinder, Angels! Here are four that I have managed to do, Beautiful Women, Autumn, Egypt and Birds. I will add the dreaded Retro when I do manage to do it!
I plan to mount my finished jigsaw onto a canvas when they are all in.. watch this space!



**** OK then an update, have finished the Retro part of this challenge, not sure if I am happy with it or not.......... not I think! My OH thinks (and I believe he is right) that I do have serious problems working outside my colour comfort zone ****
