    Beauty of nature

    August 25, 2012 - By 
    I was inspired to pull out the book I used for my friend Elizabeth’s AB 101 class I took several years ago.
    I never did complete the class. I figure I can join back in where I left off since she’s currently reteaching the class for free on her blog.
    My altered book theme is Nature.
    It was so fun to play in paint and glue again. I have to keep at it since it makes me feel so carefree.

    Card crazy

    August 13, 2012 - By 

    This summer I have been so “not creative”. Yes, I have done a few things but they were more utilitarian that artsy. More on those in later post. I’ve missed it and I think a bit of that creative energy just had to come out.

    I made 7 cards in short order mostly from scraps.

    Hopefully the creative energy will continue…or at least kick in big time after Labor Day when the kids are back in school. Until then I’m still trying to soak up as much “mom time” as I can with them.

    Quote tip-in

    June 4, 2012 - By 

    I have a passion for words. Quotes especially. I find myself making more and more quote tip-ins. I guess that means I’ll need to put together another book one day. 
    We’ve been watching the Hatfields & McCoys mini series. 
    I think that’s what brought out the photo.  It’s actually from an old Reminisce magazine. My folks used to get that one…I’ve saved some of them since they have such fun stuff inside.
    Thanks to Elizabeth for the awesome handmade paper behind the photo. She makes the best handmade paper I’ve ever seen!
