Wall Art

Wall Art

The month of August was busy for me, I painted my kitchen, recovered from 2 surgeries, and very little crafting, but I did cut wall art out for my new kitchen. Check out my fun...

A Cup of coffee, shared with a friend is happiness tasted and time well spent.

Scrapbook Boxes

I took a class this week on how to make these adorable little boxes
to put pictures and notes in. What fun , with 4 pieces of 12x12 paper.
These will be a gift for todays party at a friends. One if for the birthday boy, he can put pictures of his grandsons in it. One is for a young girl 10 years old, that I quite adore who will be at the party.
And the other is for the hostess of the party, and it is filled with photos of her grandson. I got the pictures off her daughters Facebook page.

Pencil Crayons and Gamisol

Played with Gamisol and my pencil crayons today. This is 3 large stamps, that I have not colored
much yet, but it is fun,,, just trying to figure how I will do this, and I am playing. Making calenders with them is one idea. The Mineral Spirits is a fantastic product that I hope to use more,,

Had fun today making cards for a swap. This one was unique, because we mailed all 3 cards to one person. The postage cost on this swap was low, because you only mail once... 3 different cards using 3 different pennyblack stamp, or 3 different views with one stamp, to one person.

My entry went to Sharon Moore in Meza Arizona, I used paper given to me for my birthday by Annemiek in Holland. I just love all the paper Annemiek gave me, as it is quite unusual to what I have seen to buy here in Canada.

Enjoy...

Asian Kimono Folded TAG Cards

I have had tons of fun making these adorable folded cards for a Oriental Stamp Art Swap.
These cards are easy to make , and so elegant and so different depending on the paper.
I stamped these with the PSX set I have had for a few years. These will be swapped out with other Asian Card Makers
