Fairy Magic
OK – At a yard sale last year I found some old metal fuse boxes (1 1/2″ x 1 1/2″) with clear plastic covers that slid out to access the small fuses. I also found a tiny person with a ball in her raised hands – in pretty bad shape. The definition for “fairy” was…
Red Chair Thoughts – along for the ride
I found some rather large vintage cardboard pieces children would play with, each made to look like a brick wall. When something unusual comes my way I find myself thinking of different ways to utilize it(other than what it was intended for). Sometimes, as in this case, I acted on my thoughts before I went…
Baby Book for Gabi
This is my granddaughter, Gabi, on Halloween last year – getting ready to jump to her Daddy. She is this happy ALL the time. I made a baby book to chronicle her growth ( 8 1/2″ x 12″). I’ve made other baby books for friends using book board to make the covers but I was…
Good Idea Gone Bad
Have you ever had a fabulous idea that, in the end, turned out to be above your capabilities. This was one for me. It’s been about 8 years since I pulled this together and have since learned when to cry “uncle”;) Inspiration: Computer hard drive destined for the garbage. Ohhhhh what fabulous, colorful, circuit boards…
Teach A Man To Fish
Chinese Proverb: “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime” Remember him… (napkin ring, blush brush and poly clay head) – he’s painted and assembled now. The inspiration for this piece was the oil lamp I found at a…
Copic Wallet
I love tools. A lot of what I’ve made is because I wanted to try a new tool. I created this Copic wallet (before Copic Markers came out with theirs) because 1) I just bought a Martha Stewart scoring board and was scoring everything at 1/8″ I could get my hands on 2) I wanted…
Photography
I remember getting my first 35mm camera (way before digital). I’ve had a knack for getting good, not stellar, but good pictures. I want to share a few. Learning Photoshop is on my “bucket list” – until then what you see here is how it was shot. The peaceful loving nature of cemetaries draw me…
New Mixed Media Bookmaking & Art Journaling Magazine
Just an FYI – Cloth Paper Scizzors is publishing a new magazine called Mixed Media Bookmaking and Art Journaling – coming this fall. Monthly book making eye candy AND inspiration – Ya Hoo! The Cloth Paper Scissors Magazine (pg 62) is calling for submissions. There are a lot of successful book making groups out there.…
I Made a Stamped Card – Yeah Me!
I’m not a card maker or stamper. That being said – once in a long while inspiration will grab me by the hair and I buy one of the newest, artiest stamps. My friends Jenny (http://www.onekraftykat.blogspot.com/) and Miriam’s(http://www.miriamsdelirium.blogspot.com/) cards are inspirational – but sometimes it still doesn’t help. I have to admit – I don’t…
Wedding Center Piece
June weddings are being planned and I wanted to share a table center piece (14″ overall height) I made many many years ago for my daughter’s wedding reception (I can’t remember how many we made – but it seemed like Edna (myBFF) and I made a gazillion flowers). The hem of Laura’s wedding gown was…
