Arty Crafty Happy News for October 2021

No pics today, I'm all words...! Thank you for visiting and shopping with the 'Art by Jenny' arty treasure shop. Hope you're enjoying this week by making, stamping, sculpting, creating whatever makes you smile!

If you're new to my shop and keep wondering why I call everything "arty treasures", its simple - not all treasure is silver and gold, well, unless its silver or gold paint, ink, glitter or leaf :) Art supplies and craft materials are all treasures to me. Some are my precious and others are my favourites, oh the things we can do and the places we can dream up! All with art :) Love it.

FREE Mixed Media Tutorials ... Art and creativity is so good for our mental heath, so don't wait for time to appear for craft, make time!
- On the blog, I've included before and after photos, so you can see how the page was put together. Pop over to my craft blog and check it out. I hope it inspires you to have a go. I hope to be encouraging everyone to create a life less ordinary through art, and all with easy to follow, step by step tutorials with large clear photos and loads of information.
- If there's a particular technique you're searching for or you need a hand, I'm always here to help.  Click here for FREE tutorials. Each picture in the gallery is a link to its tutorial :)
