What a beautiful day!!!

The past few days have been a bit rough as I've been bitten by a bug...not a nice bug either!!! BUT sometimes it's our bodies way of slowing us down don't you think? I found as I lay there on the sofa I had time to think about all the things I've done in the past year and it actually blows me away. I've made and traded 100's of little ATCs. It's amazing how these little gems become addicting...so much so that I've let my canvas art take a back seat. I have also met so many great ladies who love making them as well. It's like having a little piece of each of their art work that I can keep forever! I've received atcs from all over the world...my postmaster things I'm crazy for I'm her number one client..hehehehe!!! Yep, I visit her several times a week. hehehehe!!! Well, I really just wanted to come and wish each of you a wonderful day...if you aren't feeling well please let me know so I can put you on my prayer list. One of our daughter's (hubby's daughter) and her family have been passing around the Swine Flu. All we can do is pray that those who contract this are able to fight it off with meds. I've been making pots of soup to share with neighbors who've been sick as well..

So now I"m going to go back and take a little nap in the hopes this fever will subside...good thing I've kept some soup for us too...heheheh!!!
blessings to all who happen by this little blog today!!!

Crowabout wk 56

Here is week 56 challenge in Crowabout...we are given a collage sheet from Nancy (2nd photo) and we are to use at least 3 items to create out page. I used 8x10 acrylic paper and acrylic paints, enlarged one of the little horses large enough to make the wanted woman with the guy able to ride him...used yarn for the mane and tail...and found an old pipercub from 1939 when they first came out...what fun this was to do!!!

This is for a great cause!!!

Most of you know Pam Carriker who is not only an awesome artist, but a teacher of awesome classes, and wonderful mom and wife...she has great compassion for those suffering with breast cancer as it's hit close to home. A family member has been suffering with it so she's doing something to make a difference. You can go to her ETSY shop via http://www.thebagladysart.etsy.com/

and find this beautiful print of a painting she did so she could not only give us a beautiful creation by her which in of it's self is a real treat, but the procedes of the sales are going to Breast Cancer Recearch...how awesome it that??? You know I think I'm going to do one as well (not nearly as gorgeous as Pam's, but I feel we all could do our part to help find a cure for this horrific disease!!! Will post mine in a couple days!!!

Don't for get to get yours!!!!

What fun this Gut Art Class with Mystele is. She's challenging use to really see all that's around us...getting down to our authentic art. I'm loving the process and even finding out more about ME...how awesome it that?? ehehehe!!!

Lookie what we have!!!

This is my hubby with all three pugs. Wrinkles is laying on the other side of the bed and little Sadie (black) is laying near Dewey! Our new guy, Napolian is standing. Napolian (I call Polo for short) is a very sweet friendly guy who loves attention. We are happy to say he and Wrinkles chase each other all over the house and yard which I'm sure will help Wrinkles lose some weight!!! How we got this gorgeous pug for free is a rather sad story for he was destine for the pound. A husband and wife decided to divorce, husband was sent back to Iraq leaving his beloved pug, Napolian behind. Wife didn't really like this little dog for she had her own BIG dog...so she decided since the were getting a divorce she's just get ride of him. Now mind ya they had this little guy for 5 yrs. Our SIL works with the wife so told us about the dog...we went over to see him and took him home that very night. We talked it over and decided even tho we've already bonded with Polo and love him we will give him back to his owner if he wants him back when he comes back from the war. It's only right that he should have him don't y0u think?? I know it will be hard when and if the time comes, but we know how we would feel if it were us over there...no, he doesn't even know she got rid of him!!! Sad isn't it???

We will take care of him and enjoy what time we do have!!!

Blessings,

Bevie
