My Creative Space - Collage




Yep, it's finally finished! I've changed it all around, if you're wondering why it looks nothing like you remember! Actually, it's been so long I'm sure no-one remembers the original design (have a peek here if you like!) I'm on to making a second one now - this one will have the stiletto lady and the hand-sewn text I'd originally created for this first one... it just didn't work with the heavier colours of this print. The second print I made afterwards so it's much lighter and has a grainier texture to it. Anyway... Happy Creative Space day everyone! Check out all the creative lovelies via Kirsty's here.

    Yellow is one of my favorite colors, so this really appeals to me. I like how you've combined all the different elements.

    They are beautiful Kylie. You have a distinctive style and colour choice and I really get a lot out of observing your creative space. I probably haven't described that very well, I'm not sure how to.

    Aesthetic! You have a distinctive aesthetic. I love it

    Kylie, that is stunning. I love it and can't wait to see how the next one turns out. I was never drawn to yellow (despite having a bad fashion blip in the 80s with a matching yellow t-shirt and skirt - bleugh) but just lately I'm loving it. x
