A Little More Spring, Please

Lots of rain on top of that already melted snow. My back yard is like a swamp. Not sure what I'm going to do with this and the ones I've previously shown you, but, I am having fun playing in this giant Moleskin journal. Thanks for visiting.

Move Over ICADS. Here Comes Deli Paper

Having finished for now with the ICAD challenge after 61 days of art on an index card I am playing more with deli paper. I am enjoying the first layer of color. Here's a few pages. Happy Paint Party Friday!! It's a great place to visit on a Friday night. Thanks for visiting.

Where Does The Time Go?

Doesn't this look like a fishing tackle box? Wait. Here's another bad photograph. I've never been fishing a day in my life. It is a fishing tackle box. I thought it very ingenious of me to use it as a onthecouchwatchingNetflixmovies kind of thing. I thought it would be cool to limit supplies. Limit paint, use the cheap craft paint, limit markers, etc. You know, create with the bare essentials. It's got so many compartments I can't find anything. Most things get dumped in the bottom.I think if I would take the time to organize it better it just might work. These were made for my Lifebook 2014 class. I'm having trouble keeping up but that's ok. I had some fraudulent activity on my bank account. That was NOT ok so I had to deal with that. Yes, this is the same picture as the one above but more filled in. Continuing to work on background pages in this recycled photo album. That's all for now.

More Playing

Yesterday, I made a mess out of something I had done. It had a border which you can't see here. I took this piece I did when I was playing with the Gelli Plate and cut out the border and placed it around the gelli print page. Kind of gives it a new look, don't you think? Don't know what I'm going to do with it yet, but there it is. I seemed to have been on a certain color combination because I ended up using it for background journal pages, tags and brown paper bag paper. And I made some more paper for the leaves on the tree I previously showed you where I asked you if you could tell what the branches were made from. So far, no one has figured it out. I want to leave you guessing a bit longer. :) On a last note, my mail box was happy yesterday when I got a surprise from Terri in Washington state who sent me this. Very cool! She inspires me to actually rethread my sewing machine and start sewing post cards. Thank you, Terri if you are reading this. How often do we inspire each other?! Wishing you a good weekend full of art filled messes. Thanks for stopping by........................................Jo
