The New Year

Wow, I have finally slowed down enough to enter an update.  We had a very busy Holiday season.  My husband and I took an extended vacation during November, then December was busy with parties and family.  We had a wonderful holiday season filled with adventure, family and friends. 

I have been in a creative slump, I think its all the medicine that I have been taking for nerve pain associated with two surgeries in 2011.  Since the first of the year, I decided to try to break the creative barrier by trying my hand at a multi medium class by Christy Tomlinson.  I will post pictures as I finish each project. 

I have also been creating ATCs again.  I have joined a small group (15) that will create ATCs according to a monthly theme.  January's Theme was Mardi Gras. (Mail Me Something, Mister)   Here are a few of the cards that I have received and the one that I sent out. 

This is the one I created and used as a page in the mini book I made to hold all of the cards.  I'll post th mini in another post.

Halloween Mini #2

This is the second of 3 Mini albums for Halloween That I will be sharing with you today.

Halloween Mini Album

With Halloween fast approaching, I thought I would make a couple of mini book with a Halloween theme for my grand kids and a great niece. The book I am posting first is for my two grandsons whose parents have a big extravagant Halloween party every year. My Daughter in Law goes all out with the baking. She makes cookies, candy, and cupcakes all decorated in Halloween spirit. I usually make eyeballs, which are always a big hit. My stepson does all the decorating and what a wonderful job he does.

Well on to my first of three Halloween mini books.
