Hello! I'm so happy about what's on my desk this week! I'm trying altered art, it's my first time and it's so much fun! I can't belive I've never tried this before. I joined this free online class I blogged about it a few days ago. Here's the link if you're intersted http://willowing.ning.com/main  scroll down to the middle, where you see the picture of Tam. She's the very kind soul offering this free course. If you'd like, you can scroll down just a little to the Friday, 15 post and watch the video. Hope you have a great rest of the week :) Off to check out your desk!

So way back in june I started this project, but I didn't get around to finishing it because I was looking for a smaller nose that looked more like a dog nose Well, I never found it, but this is for my friend and she needed it. So I gave up looking and made it with what I had. I like it, it looks ok with the nose I had. I changed the eyes to a brown/black combo. This is how he begun.            Meet Rex :)

Join me!

WoW! 70 and still going strong, that's gotta feel great! Thank you Julia for this wonderful cure to the mid-week slump! In case you don't know, WOYWW is the day when we crafters get to take a snoop at each other's desks and get some tips, ideas from each other. If you want to see some more desks go over to Julia's blog . Ok, so I did a lot of complaining last week about not having time to craft. I found out that it's true, but it's not so bad. I still get a little in here and there! I did manage to do a layout last week. Look for it in my previous post if you're interested. So here's what my desk looks like today. I'm showing off some stash I got at Michael's and Marshall's. I also started working on a layout with some of the new paper, so you can see what I'm thinking about doing here. If you want to put it your 5cents that's great :) Ok, so what do we have going on here? There's some of the pictures for the LO I'm pl

Quick and simple

Yay! I found some time to craft! Here's a quick layout I made for the paper varitey's challenge . "The sky's the limit" was the theme! I couldn't resist using my new birdie papers from DCWV's amber autumn value stack. It has really beautiful designs!  Here's my entry: It's a photo of my husand and I at the top of Echo mountain after having hiked for about 3.5 hours! We were tired but we made it to the top! ...and back (another 3.5 hours!) The photo looks a bit darker in this picture for some reason! It looks much better in real life. The journaling is all over the page, I had so much to say about this wonderful place.
