Sharing some more photos!






The first photo is of my daughter Missy whom many of you have been praying for...she's such a sweetie and doing much better!!! The second photo was taken of me 2 days ago...getting old!! hehehe, then the third is of me at 25 yrs old...what a difference...sigh!!! hehehe And last but not least is our mom at 27 just after me and my twin was born. She's beautiful even today at 91...will post a photo when she comes to Thanksgiving dinner....
It's so much fun to find old photos isn't it??? Blessings!!!

What I've been up to...











I've been having a blast making little ornies for gifts...I've been in a couple ornie swaps as well.
I have discontinued making little ATCs for now cuz it gives me more time to create the paintings I love to do, and enter into swaps, but most of all to spend more time living life!! I'd love to see some of the things you are working on for Christmas or for Thanksgiving for that matter...Am I getting ahead of my self here..hehehhe!!! We all know times keeps marching on and in no time Christmas will be here so getting ready is a good thing. If you have an tutorials as to creating different ornies please add your website or blog here so others can visit you!!!
Have an awesome weekend, and a very Blessed Thanksgiving. Remember to share with those less fortunate. (((hugs)))

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!!!
