THE EST CHALLENGE - WATER

I'm so happy to announce, that my journal cover won the EST challenge, so now I'm the host for the next one.
Many thanks to Petronella and Pieter!

As autumn is approaching in the Northern hemisphere, and this season is traditionally connected to the element of water,
the theme of the new EST challenge is WATER


I hope this video serves as a little inspiration for you.
But many of us had loads of water coming from the sky this summer, so no additional inspiration needed :)

Deadline: Monday, the 19th of September 9 pm CET
Please, contact me with a photo and link to your entry on Etsy or here: ritajc@inbox.lv

The only rule: it has to be something new created or at least listed on Etsy starting from today

Can't wait to see, what everyone comes up with!

My Creative Space - The Blue Angel



This is my first try to make a needle felted angel and my entry for the European Street Team weekly challenge hosted by Priscilla aka bijouxdellostregatto in her blog
Still pondering: Should I add something to it? Should I embellish  it with some beads or embroidery? What do you think?

It started like this ...

Poke, poke, poke ...

Voila! A needle felted pumpkin pin cushion and/or decoration!
