Not long ago I showed you the paper bag book I made for our swap group. Everyone designs these books differently with the one constant feature being the book is built literally of paper bags. Today I want to show you the book I received from Karen Rushton. I absolutely love it and I think… Continue Reading
Creative Crafty Friends currently has a list of ATC prompts for each day of May. I am having a hard time fitting them all into my schedule, but have been able to do quite a few of them. When I saw the prompt for vintage I wasn’t sure I wanted to do that one. Vintage… Continue Reading
It has been some time since I showed you my 100 Day Project pieces. This year I am making an art piece each day with whatever happens to be on my desktop at the time. That might be a piece of tangled art, it might be a piece of mixed media. Not a lot of… Continue Reading

A little bit of everything and I then had a fun, colorful, bright puzzle to put together while I was thinking about what to do next. Hahahah! A little trouble focusing these… Continue Reading
It is hard to believe we are already up to week 18 in the project Zen-untangled! The tangles this week are really good, especially Tripoli. I was finally able to draw it and have it look like someone older than a second grader did it! Hahahaha! Not even kidding! (No offense to second graders intended.)… Continue Reading

Something we really need more of. These two art journal pages were made for a swap. Of course…. Continue Reading
