Dream


"Week-end Market" by Bo Bunny. It has such a vintage feel. It works perfectly with all of my favorite photos. I'm sure I'll be using it a lot. I don't use stamps very often. most of the time I hand letter the quotes in my pieces. But I came across this stamp by Tim Holtz, just what I was looking for!

Trying Something New


It's always fun to try something a little bit different. For this piece I used two 4X4 canvases, attaches them with some small brass hinges.


The Legs are from Tim Holtz. The papers used are "On the Boardwalk" by Graphics 45


For the inside, the calendar is "Tim Holtz", idea-ology stickers. the papers are Graphics 45. I've used assorted shells, sand, and a piece of a fishing net.

Another wonderful photo that I could not resist. I thought she looked like a beautiful, strong, and independent woman.
Papers are "Week-end Market" by BO BUNNY, the butterfly is Graphics 45 "Olde Curiosity Shoppe".


The metal pieces: The Key is from 7Gypseys.
While looking through an antique shop I found this key hole. Awesome!!! worked well in this piece.



Happy Easter Everyone!

It's A Wonderful World


When I saw this photo I knew I had to use it in one of my pieces. I think whoever she is, she was absolutely beautiful!
While walking through Achievers the other day I came across the  perfect paper collection to complement her photo. It's called "Week-end Market"


by BO BUNNY. I liked it so much that today I went to "Remember When", a wonderful little scrapbook Store owned by my friend Shannon. She ordered  a 12X12 package of all  the lovely papers in this collection for me.


I will be using them in a lot more of my pieces!
Have I mentioned in the past that I love Vintage?
Yep! I think I Did! ;)

Steampunk Art

 I Love Steampunk Art! It's been a while since I worked on a piece larger then 8X8. I started with a 12X12 Canvas layering papers, photos, paint and ink added watch parts and gears.
