    Little bit of this and that

    January 20, 2011 - By 

    I cleaned up my art zone a little bit yesterday…enough to do a quick page in an altered book.
    I used some of the scrap laying around the workspace for this page. I still need to get to work on some similar themed swap pages.

    I also started work on yet another attempt at a braided rug. Things are going much better this time around… *quickly knocking on wood*

    The morning sky was pretty so I thought I’d share it with you. The photo was taken through the glass of the patio door. Way to chilly to stand outside for a lousy photo op for me.

    Gothic arch book complete

    While the kids were gone at a birthday party today, I got busy making a cover for my ABC 7th Anniversary book. 

    One little issue…I miscalculated when I was going to punch the cover with my Bind-it-all.

    UGH!

    But look…amazing what sins a little lace will cover right!?!?

    Journal pages

    May 18, 2010 - By 
    I’m still having a hard time getting back in the groove of making art on a regular basis. I want to but then I sit down to do it and nothing comes. 

    I decided I needed to do something different. Something experimental. So I grabbed a book and started slapping down some paint. I added what ever felt right at the moment. I didn’t even wait for the paint to completely dry. I just made art for the sake of doing it, not for what my end result might be.  It was very free and very fun. I’m positive I didn’t spend more than 10 minutes on each one.

    I don’t know if I’ll go back and add actual journal entries in these pages or if they are done but who cares right!?!
