Sloppy Kissees from Jackson!

What I'm working on!

I have an old hymnal I'm going to alter and use as a spiritual journal.

A new post and a new piece!

Meet my grandson Jackson!

I'm having so much fun!

Collages - I love doing collages!

Three new journal collages I've done! they are so fun!




This is NOT me!



This is me! Give me jeans over pearls any day!

More Pages!

I've been so busy with work and then a cold I just haven't had time to get into my craft room. Well I did tonight! I had started these two pages a month ago and forgot about them. I finished them up tonight.

I love this image of the little girl and her mother. I guess it is her mother. They look like they are. Did they have a happy life? I hope so. The words at the bottom "Tomorrow's hits today!" is from an old 78 record sleeve. I felt something else needed to be added along the edges but I just couldn't find the right image. So I just left it finished as is.




I wanted to do something fun with this piece. I've been enjoying reading Shani's blog. She has some fun pieces here and here. So I wanted to do the same. All the images are from an old 1950's magazine. I love those!

A new piece

You are a sister worth having.

Some New Journal Pages

A new journal page that's something like an old ATC

This is a new page in my smaller journal. My Dark Desert Maid.



I've received lots of nice comments on my Flickr account about this page.

Here is a similar image to the one above that I used on an ATC. I guess I got them from the same old magazine.


I like how they turned out.

Some new ATC

Here are four new ATC I made on Sunday evening. The images are from an old magazine and the wording is from an old dictonary and from an old 1950's etiquette book.





The background for this ATC is cut from aa tissue box.

Think Monday - Think ATC

This week's Think Monday - Think ATC is insects. Here's my entry:



Kind of simple but done. I never seem to get this done on Monday. Maybe next week.

The website is here.

Think Monday - Think ATC

More Monday ATC are here!

Some new entries in my journal.

Classic page. Painted background with just bits and pieces added. I didn't put a lot of thought into the page. I just did it and I liked how it turned out.

The facing page to the one above with the same painted background but different elements added.

Words journal page.

Winter Wonderland. The picture is an ad from a magazine. The picture reminded me of our 20th annivesary trip to a cabin during the winter of 1999.

The Light in the Window.

Longing for warmer weather.

My first attempt at writing. I found this page in an old book and thought it needed my own story.

Art Journals

My journal - almost full


My new journal - waiting, waiting for what I don't know yet!


Some 2008 date planners I'm going to alter.

Think Monday - Think ATC

My first ATC for Think Monday - Think ATC. The theme was Geometric. I choose circles or round.

Website is here.

4x4 Friday - Open Theme

This weeks theme for 4x4 Friday was open to what ever you wanted to do. I've got babies on the mind. My daughter Sara just found out Thursday she is having a boy. So our first grandchild will be a little buddle of blue joys. I thought this image was so cute. The bubble background didn't show up to well though.

4x4 Friday - My first post!

This started out as a ATC. I just happened to be working on this piece when I decided to join the 4x4 Friday and music was the theme for my first week. So that worked out well.
