I love the tradition of sending out Christmas cards. I usually make and send out approximately 60 of them. I have my first design done and am going to post it here. I have to say, I really want the card itself to be a deeper green, more of a forest, but this is all [...]

Autumn Colors
Posted in Art, Just my Thoughts, tagged Art, autumn, tag on 20 October 2008 | 1 Comment »
One of the things I love most about living in upstate New York is fall. Not the kind our economy is taking but the season of the year. I am not sure I could live where there are not four distinct seasons. I have tons of photos of autumn colors. Now I have a small [...]
Halloween Charms

I use to be terrified to join a charm swap. I am still a tad bit behind some of my peers but I joined the Halloween charm swap from The Latest Trends in Mixed Media.
I had so many different ideas floating around in my head. I have been on a “use what you have” kick [...]
Halloween ATC

You may wonder why someone with insurance or even with Medicare needs to have money to have live-saving [...]
Las Vegas Inspired Charms

I posted, a few days ago, my first attempt at making charms out of dice. I was not happy with the way they came out at all. What I did not realize, but Trish took the time to explain to me, is that the wire on most pieces that I was envisioning was not one [...]
Challenge and Charm Swap

This month’s charm swap and challenge for Latest Trends in Mixed Media has a Las Vegas theme. I have had several ideas come into my head since signing up but one keeps coming back to me. It involves a full-sized die in a wire cage. I was sure this would be it when I came across [...]
