Northern lights party invites

Party invites can be super expensive to buy so if you've got some sweet little rubber stamps at home, you can save a fortune. These cards would also make good birthday cards. You could use blues and greens if you had floral stamps, dinosaurs or a beach theme.

Sassy sample pot canvas

On a recent visit to the Art Gallery of NSW I was struck by the beautiful vivid colours of an abstract painting from the 1940's. Its modern, energetic look really stayed with me. This weekend as we were using some sample pot paints for another project, the colours took me back to that canvas. 

Just add paint until you're happy with how it looks. Using house paint sample pots gives really thick dense coverage, but you could use acrylic paint too.
