ATC cards... making pages for a book....

I have been working on making pages to mount my ATC cards on...













As I make the background pages I am going to mount the cards one the page using old fashion photo corners. As I work on the pages I am going to store them in my "cowboy" tin box (it's in the background) and when I am done with this years collection I will bind it all together into a book. I am waiting to get my February cards in the mail.... as soon as I do I will post a picture.

Thanks for stopping by! Will be checking in again soon with an update on my "screen"...

Progress on my screen...

I have been trying to squeeze in time on painting on my screen.... In the past couple of weeks in has progressed:
















Every time I work on painting something I teach myself how to do a technique... thank goodness for books to go by when I don't know how to do something. I tried this gel medium with fiber in it on the flowers. I bought some new paint brushes that help blend better... I know my pictures not the best.... one day I will be able to take one in better light. Ha! Anyway... I love how it is turning out and I hope to be done soon....

Well thanks for stopping by and looking! Off to bed...

Flygirls ATC's for February....

I finished my February ATC's for my Flygirls ATC trade...

Here is a new book that I got that I am very excited about....

I cannot wait to see what I get in the mail... I really like how they turned out. I am very excited about this book I purchased. I have always wanted to design fabric and now with sites like Spoonflower I think that I am going to develop some of my designs at have them printed up. I have so many ideas.... I wish I had the energy to stay up late every night to work on my ideas.

Well time to call it a night, thanks for stopping by!
