    Texture ATC’s

    May 15, 2008 - By 


    I went ahead and signed up for a couple more swaps mainly because they are being hosted by Elizabeth, who is also hosting the 2 ABC Anniversary swaps. If I hurry, I can combine the postage and send them all together as well as get them returned together. Gotta save those pennies everywhere we can these days!!

    These are made from some fusion paper I made at least a year ago. It was kind of a wild experimental day if I remember right. Never quite knew what to do with my result. This texture ATC swap seemed like the perfect answer.

    The second swap is called imperfections. Meaning, go ahead and use those not so perfect circles or the colored paper that just doesn’t seem to go. Hopefully I’ll get my tip-in completed today so I can mail some packages tomorrow.

    ART NOW FOR AUTISM

    May 14, 2008 - By 

    I came across this a couple weeks ago, bookmarked it and totally forgot. I do that more than I’d like to admit.
    Check out the website here at www.artnowforautism.com 100% of the proceeds from the sale will go to Autism Speaks.

    I’m planning on sending off these 2 pieces that I’ve made over the past few years.

    This is a cause VERY near to my heart. Our boy has Asperger’s Syndrome, which is on the autism spectrum. He is doing extremely well these days. We are so proud of him and how far he has come. People who knew him as a preschooler can hardly believe that the 8yr old in front of them is the same child.

    Fusion papers

    May 11, 2008 - By 


    I got my workout and shower in, so then it was playtime!

    I haven’t made fusion paper for ages mainly because I don’t have enough time to make it and have it dry somewhere before little “helping hands” get to it. It’s very breezy today and with the strong sun, I figured they should dry pretty quickly outside.
