Wow what a gorgeous Morning!!!!!!

Oh I am so hoping Spring is coming faster than the 3 weeks.. the sun is teasing again. The birds are being very cheerful and active, squirells racing around.. The deer have been hiding.. Guess they are finding budding leaves up on the hill above our house. Today I just want to take in the day. Think about my future crafting that I will need to get done next week. So I leave you with some Native American clipart that was offered free... Hugs, Debbie

The Sun is teasing us!!

The Sun is teasing us this morning with rays of sunshine , will it actually be a gorgeous day,, with no rain, snow, clouds? I finished my Feb Lottery and went to bed last night thinking what swaps I could come up with for April.... decided it was time for the sewing machines to come out of hibernation and start practicing for Fabric Inchies , Fabric Atc's.. So I leave you with warm thoughts. Hope the sun will give you a little shine in your part of the world. Here is some clipart for you to enjoy. Hugs, Debbie

We finally got home last night! How about some egg clipart

We had a wonderful trip to my inlaws... had a 4 inch snow while we were visiting. Dh took pictures from the front door so will see what is in the snow besides the dogs... LOL.. I had to turn around this am and drive to my orthopedic surgeon for my followup on my knee surgery.. Don't have to go back till June. The winds were horrible and I had wished dh could have taken me , but he was busy back at work after being off 5 days. So then I had to go get my disability license plates and placard for the truck. The guy had never done the plates before and took a good bit to get to the right screen in the computer to get them reissued.. So I am exhausted and need to regain energy. It is good to be back home and get back into a routine. I didn't pack any of my art supplies because with the two dogs it was just too crowded in the truck.. So I hope to work on my tape page in my journal this weekend, and start working on planning the April databases.... I did leave the doctor's office and went into Hastings for a craft book that has some ideas and techniques for the groups. So off to get in my pj's , just took a pain pill so hope it will work fast. I am leaving you with some egg clipart... Hugs, Debbie

I love this picture of these cute little girls.. well today was a crafting day to try to get my Paperfollies swaps done before we go out of town Sunday. I plan on taking a few crafts to work on while visiting my in laws. All I need to get finished are my 6 Spring/Easter Inchies and my Hearts Card and may even get them mailed off to partners by Monday. I have all of my Inchies groups done. Things are slowly warming up. Spring is so wanted around here. Have a great weekend. Hugs Debbie

StillMeadow-My first Altered Book

These are my first two pages in my Altered Book. I chose a book with sturdy binding. Pulled out about half of the pages and washed both pages in a grey acrylic. I named this book "Stillmeadow" I had an sample book of cloth wallpaper that I glued down first , my first attempt at using a stencil creame and a stencil to get the Energy word..the picture was a piece that a friend had sent me to get started.. She looks like she has "Energy" doesn't she?.LOL.. the second page done the same way. I used a washer from dh's garage and sanded it a bit and used acrylics on it to give it an aged look. The hanging Kani marker is attatched to another page in the book. So I think I will work with these two pages first and with the new things I have learned since starting this in July 2007 I will see what I can do to get these pages complete. I have even looked at my first ATC's and the ones now and see how I have grown in my art techniques. Hugs, Debbie.

Oriental Women to share

Oriental Art is my most favorite to work in. I am thinking so that on our final and last move into a new home , not sure if it is the one we are in or not,, but I want to do one of the bedrooms in Oriental furniture and artwork. My first art that I started with was an altered book and I decided to do it in Oriental. Since it was my very first attempts into the art world and  I have learned so much I am going to redo some of the  pages, I can just repaste over the top and start new ones.  Debbie

Another Primer Sheet to Enjoy

Well the sun is coming up early so hoping today is a lot warmer. I am packing and trying to get us ready for being out of town to his parents for about 5 days. Seems like the list gets longer, but is important so that I don't forget it. If they had a title for list like they do zentangle I would have millions of them over the years. Well enjoy your day. Hope the snow is slowing down for some and Spring is getting around the corner. Hugs,
