There are a few new things added to website! Maybe they look familiar to you? These are some of my favorite things I've taught in E-Workshops.
(Baby Face) Sold
( Hand Bound Art Journal ) Sold
I love each of these pretties dearly, but I have too many. So I've put them on sale on my website. Go check them out here.
Hope to be adding more soon!
So yesterday we wrapped up the Salvaged Chandelier E-Workshop. Here's a glimpse or two of the finished chandy...
It looks so great in my studio! These were shots in the kitchen (much better light) and it didn't look too bad in there either.
The E-Workshop is available for a while...it's too much fun to create so I'll keep it on the website for a while. When people subscribe now, they will have access to all of the tutorials, downloadables, and videos. I usually do 3 posts/projects a week, but we've reached that milestone, so now all of the projects are available. Subscription details are right here.
Anyway, just had to share the pix. The light was beaming in and it all looked so pretty!
Eeks, I've been on a roll lately! The other day I had a idea for more vintage supply cases (since they were all sold out) and I put together these guys.
They turned out great and I'm so loving them. I've had these vintage city maps for a few years and decided to create supply cases with them.
These city maps (Detroit Michigan, actually) are in prestine condition. They are canvas backed and the colors are sooo great. I love the colors!
This one has a great logo on the side. Isn't it cool?
I made a couple for me, because I have lots of pens, tools, markers that are all over my desk. It's annoying...now it's easy to keep track of them all.
I also made some to put on my website. You can find them in the Artwork section here. Go take a peek, it's like a trip down memory lane I tell you! I also added some new jewelry pieces!!
Every Summer I get the urge to create some special pieces. Like this one. The chunky stones....love them so much.
Hopefully I will have a few more to share soon. I have so many things on my list of creative urges. Yesterday I got a couple of cool (I hope) ideas in my head...and let them ruminate a bit. I love it when that happens. Today I'm hoping to get to them. I will get to some at least.
Hope your day is a great one!
Hello, just me popping in to say that I made a couple more collaged supply cases yesterday. The colors and style of this one make me smile. The sweet vintage ribbon, too.
Here's the inside:
The other case is striped...richer colors.
Here's the back:
I just added them to the website...you can find them here.
Enjoy this day!!
This week I've been a collaging crazy girl. I made some funky supply cases and they turned out really well!
The collage work was inspired by all of the collages I've been making in the Paint Paper Paste E-Workshop. The mediums for these cases are so flexible but stiff, and just so yummmmmy to me.
They are two sided, free stitched all over, then sewn into cases...pouches...whatever you want to call them. I'm going with "cases"!
Had to add extra special ribbons for closures, too. From my secret stash. Those ribbons were just begging to be used...
This one is a bit smaller. It's still big enough to hold pencils, paint brushes, art journaling tools, make up, photos...etc.
This one is more colorful. It's a bit smaller, too. Great for pens, markers, crayons...etc.
I wish you could feel the texture of these cases! They are from paper, but are so stiff. And they are easy to wipe clean, with a damp cloth.
Here's all of them.
Just added them to the website here. SOLD OUT (I'm making more!)
Have a great weekend!
Here's a peek at what is featured in The Paint Paper Paste E-Workshop tomorrow. I have gotten into making tags this year, and these were soooo much fun to make. I had to make myself stop adding stuff.
Maybe it's the size of tags that are so much fun for me...I dunno, but I love them. I've shared so many great techniques in this E-Workshop project for tomorrow, and over 20 photos...call me crazy. That's a lot. It's going to be great!
How was your weekend? My Mother in Law is visiting and we've been spending time with her. She went with us to our son's state track meet, Friday.
He ran really well, by the way! He runs a relay, so 4 other guys run this with him. You have to count on their abilities and their good and their not so good times. Some of the others on his relay team didn't run their best, but they were at State, and that's what matters. They worked so hard all season, so it was a great end to their year. So proud of those guys!
There's a new E-Workshop in the works! If you are a paper or mixed media fan, you will love Paint, Paper, Paste!
Paint, Paper, Paste is all about the joy of designing our own papers...which is my absolute favorite part. I honestly don't know why I didn't put this Workshop together for us sooner. I can't stop making them!
During this 5 week workshop we will jump heart first into designing and creating our own collage backgrounds...then things a step further and create several projects WITH the yummy collages. I'll be doing a few videos tutorials and demonstrations along the way. Can't wait to share these techniques!
The E-Workshop starts Tuesday, May 10! Get the details here!
New month, new week, new day. That's a lot to be happy about! I've been busy getting things ready for an upcoming new E-Workshop!
If I would step away from the supplies I could have it all ready to show you now, but it's just so much fun! I keep making more and more! So, stay tuned for the details!
We had a super weekend. Went to watch our daughter run in the Drake Relays over the weekend. Such a huge and notable meet in the runner's world! It was memorable for her and her relay team, as only a few on the team qualified for this nationally known meet.
That was definitely the highlight of our weekend! Can't wait to have her home for the Summer! Gaaa!
Okay, better go clean up my mess now. Have a wonderful day!
There are some new collages on the website! Yay! It looks so colorful and pretty in there now! The past couple of weeks, while waiting most impatiently for Spring, I decided to gather my favorite collaging supplies and make my own Spring.
The color choices in this collection were the yellow golds, pinks, splotches of babybell blue, and that eye catching spring green. These are the colors I long to see (and are just now peeking thru in the hards in our neighborhood). Love it!!
This new one, is one of my favorites:
Here's a sweet girl that's ready to dance on that spring grass and soak up some sun.
I think I've shown the progression of these collages as they were being made.
The house and the girl are great together! They are done on the 2" thick canvases. If you like to collage and haven't used the thick canvases before, I recommend you try them. So fun!
Go check them out here! Enjoy your day sweet friends.
