Women at work is the theme this week for Skinny Saturday. I made a lavender sachet with my skinny. I printing the image of a hard-working wash-woman on linen and embellished it, then displayed it on a miniature wire hanger.
Life has taught me that what matters most is not what job I have, but the attitude with which I do my work. Even in a stinky job, a great disposition can freshen the work environment with a sweet fragrance.
This is a shared mother and daughter blog. Today’s artwork is created by Laura, the Mama.








This is beautiful
Laura, I love this and I totally agree about the attitude! This is really beautiful my dear.I love the hanger too!
Itsm gorgeous.
Thanks for visiting my blog! I love your ‘Women at Work’ skinny! And your blog looks fantastic!
Beautiful!
Hello Laura, I love what you did for this challange.
A beautiful interpretation of this weeks theme, in bygone days washing was very hard work.
In the old days women had a tough live due to all the hard labour, Respect.
I also wanted to thank you for visiting mij blog and leaving your comment, it is always nice to get appreciation for the work we`ve made/done.
You asked me how I made the Crackle in my work.
(How did you do the crackle? I love it! Creatively Yours, Laura)
Here is how I did it: First I selected what kind of background-paper I used and than I stamped the crackle on it with medium-brown color Ink. It is very easy and this way you can make any paper look “old”.
This is the mounted stamp that I mean:
CRACKLED BACKGROUND-3024G-Rubber Stampede Rubber Stamp-SIZE: approximately 4-1/4″x4-5/8″.
I hope that I have given you all the information that you needed, otherwise please let me know.
With regards,
Marina.
