I have started drawing again... here is my zentangle in process:

I was working outside.... I love summer mornings when it is warm out and quite to draw...

Just a quick post, thanks for stopping by and looking!

June ATC Cards for my Flygirls group...

I got my cards done for my Flygirl ATC June trade... the theme was Mellow Yellow:

I painted a background on an old book page and then drew my design.

I cut it in to four cards...

My idea was the sun....

Yellow has always been a bit of a challenge for me but, I think I am getting a bit better at using the color. It is growing on me.

Well that is it for now... In a few days I will do an update on my latest zentangle...

As always, thanks for stopping by.

Stop the madness....

I was doing my time card for work Friday just like I do every couple of weeks and since February my hours have been any where from 95 to like this weeks 106.5 - I am working to much overtime and not enough on the things I enjoy.... I have been trying to work on this zentangle:

And... this Letter K for a baby shower:

My daughters best friend is having her first baby and they had everyone that was invited to bring a letter so that she will have the whole alphabet to hang around her room. The shower was yesterday and all the letters were so cool. It is a great idea.

It felt good to be creative instead of working at home yesterday... I have also been running, doing couch to 5K - yesterday ran outside instead of on the treadmill and did 2 miles in 23 minutes. It is so different running outside, need to learn to pace myself. I am going to run a 3k in September and actually do a mud run in August. It does help with the stress of my job.... I need to find that balance with such a demanding job. Yikes!

Well, thanks for sticking with me and stopping by...

Making time for art....

Hello my blog friends... I think I a working my way back to art versus working 100+ hours every two weeks for my job. This past weekend I did my May cards for my Flygirls ATC trade and here they are:

I had so much fun getting back into my room and creating... now I need to finish my screen. Well it is time to start packing my stuff and head to work.

Thanks for stopping by and looking. Have a fantastic day!

I am still here....

Just checking in... I have been working so much lately that I have not had time to do art... I am feeling sad about that... I need a fix. I am going to do art this weekend and forget about work!

Thanks for stopping by... Next time I will have a picture or two...

a bit further on my screen....

I have been able to find a bit of time to add some more color to my screen....

I am loving how this is turning out. I wish my lighting was better in my room to take better pictures. I am going to try and do a bit more. I also need to work on my ATC cards that are due tomorrow for my Flytribe group. It would be wonderful to be able to work the 108 hours every two weeks I have been doing at my job on my art instead.... ummm someday. Going to go to my room... 

Thanks so much for stopping by and looking! Have a great weekend!
