    Family emergency…

    Since my last post almost all my time and energy has been taken up dealing with my folks and their health issues.

    My life feels a bit chaotic right now. I felt this kaleidoscope I made a while back summed up what my mind has been doing for the past week.

    I hope to get back on track soon by doing at least a little bit of art now and again. As well as keeping up with the altered book blog class I am taking.

    The 3rd day of Christmas


    My daughter was thrilled when she opened this one.

    She had wanted this particular book when I was wrapping it up in November. We must have had one person drop from the swap since I got my own back.

    Anyway, I made 12 little books each with a different kaleidoscope I created as the cover.

    Found some art…

    I was cleaning off my craft area this morning and found this page I had completed last week. I never took a picture because the glue was drying then I forgot all about it.

    I used all my scraps and abandoned ideas from our family Christmas letter. The star on the left is one of my digital kaleidoscopes that I had printed then very carefully cut out.

    This second page I whipped together and it kind of shows…

    It was just scraps I had laying around. I wanted to make something just to prove to myself that I hadn’t completely lost it. Not a fantastic piece but this is just my “playtime” altered book anyway.
