journal page progress... had been stumped...


Here is a journal page that I have been working on for quite sometime....



Sometimes when you try something it really doesn't turn out the way you thought. I started with the background making it too dark and also used a medium that was an watercolor that ran every time I added something onto it. I am going to finish it.... but.... lessons learn and that is why you keep a page in your journal.... at least that is what I think?

Thanks for stopping by.... have a great weekend and a Happy New Year!

recycled box....

I always need some kind of storage to put this and that in so I took a box - a 12-pack box and did this....


I covered it with pages from a old book.


I then started painting and gluing.



And then finished up....


It's a very sturdy box. I have done a few boxes now and they really are sturdy and it's good to recycle.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

CPS doodle challenge


Cloth, Paper, Scissors has a challenge (deadline may have passed) to doodle your arts supplies. I took a picture of some of my art supplies....


and I drew and doodled my art supplies....



I have been trying to do some of the challenges in CPS and Quilting Arts. I find that they help me keep motivated and even though I don't always successfully enter one, I do stretch myself.

Thanks for stopping by and looking! See you soon....

Of course one who does art, quilting, sewing, etc.... just can't let their daughter have the kids use just any hall pass.... they have to be custom made..... 


And of course there is always a new gadget that one must buy and try.... (don't you wish you would of thought of this one.... 

These clips are great, I can't wait to try them when I bind a quilt....

Well of course I forgot to take a picture of the finished project... I will have to go to my daughters classroom  to take a picture of the finished product... what was I thinking? The kids thought they were grand! 

As always, thanks for stopping by and looking!

What to do with my collection of....


I have this great collection of ATC's from my gal pals Flygirls Artist Trading card group and from participating in Liberate Your Art postcard trade (Look for the button on my page). What to do with them all to show case them.... First I am going to take one of these composition books....


and take all of my ATC cards and postcards from Liberate Your Art trade....

And start preparing the composition book to show all my wonderful cards. Of course when you begin to create, you just have to let it flow.... I have started to prepare some  pages so I will have more to show. I should let you know... that I work on many things at once so I may show other projects in progress....

Thanks for stopping by and looking....
