Art of Mine

 Hi Dear Friends, I have had Hearts and Love on my mind for a few weeks now and knew I had to make something to satisfy this need to express it creatively. I made this little pillow to fill this need to express my LOVE to my Family to my Friends to Everyone all over the world. All of these little red buttons form a heart shape. They need each other to be able to show LOVE just as we need each other to be able to express our LOVE.                                                                                     Show a little more LOVE to All whom You may mee...

Hello Dear Friends!! I wanted to share with all of you the newest ATC I made for the Blissful ATC Swap for January. The theme this month was "White/Snow"!! I never thought "how" apropo this theme would turn out to be!! I used Glitter Sheets by Petaloo for the background which I affixed to a blank ATC card. The next layer was the beautiful little girl image. Next layer I scattered some dimensional snowflake stickers from the EK Success Boutique line. The next layer I used over those three layers was a Hand silk-screened clear transparent sheet called "Frosty Snowflakes" on top of the layers. I used Clear Gel Tacky Glue as my adhesive for the multiple layers. I also added some trim between the two bottom layers to act as a frame around the outside edges. I also scallop cut some of the white glitter paper to add a small frame to the edges of the transparensy and little flat back pearls for each corner. My wonder...

Hello Sweet Friends, Here in Georgia we are bracing ourselves for a pretty severe Snow/Ice storm heading our way sometime this evening. My husband and I have been scurrying around town getting salt crystals to scatter and De-icer for the car. Filled the car up with plenty of gas too. My husband works about an hour away from our home and so is not relishing the drive into work in the morning like many other Atlantan's!! I went over to Jo-Ann's to buy a few odds and ends this afternoon that I needed to complete some craft projects with as well. Of course I had to buy another magazine...this time it was "Romantic Homes". My all time favorite one for many years is "Victoria Bliss" which I have collected for over 14 years now.
