Well, my folks just left after sharing a nice Easter dinner and visit with us. The kids have settled in to watch a movie. All is peaceful for the moment.
This sweet little Easter card is from my childhood scrapbook that mom faithfully kept for my first few years.
I almost forgot to post these with my crazy mixed-up day.
I’ve started on the charms for the ABC 5th Anniversary charm swap. So far I have 16 put together. I’ll be adding something to the backside of the scrabble tiles but haven’t gotten it on there yet.
I can’t take credit for the design concept…I received a fantastic charm in a swap on Latest Trends that these are based upon.
This is a Mail Order Brides themed challenge in keeping with the “Women in History” month for
The Latest Trends in Mixed Media Arts Yahoo group.
This digital piece was made in Paint Shop Pro with all of my own ephemera. The woman is my Grandma, the writing are my Grandpa’s sermon notes, the kids on horses are my dad and a cousin. The newspaper is from my mom’s side as well as the house picture which was a ad for sewing notions.
Just to be clear..Grandma WAS NOT a mailorder bride…don’t want to upset any of the realtives. 🙂
