Paper, Glue, Scissors, etc....

Well thanks to the "brats" and their "kind" but constant teasing of my kitchen that is the size of a postage stamp, I spent the better part of this last weekend pulling everything out of the cupboards and drawers and re-assessing everything I have and really how darn many cookie trays and casserole dishes can 2 people use at any given time?  Really!  I must have did a pretty darn good job...I now have 2 drawers that are empty, small they may be, but they are empty!  I still have 3 blenders, just can't let go of them..hummmmmm..I think I may have to make several batches of Margaritas at once, wouldn't that be a blast!  Now I just have to organize the pantry....another day, another big mess in my future!  Maybe I will make margaritas first.....

Well here is the latest in a creation for my daughter.  This was so much fun to do!  I will mostl likely be doing some in the future for myself : )

This is based on something that i saw in a magazine in a small picture, I fell in love with this little gal, and lifted the idea.  I have been looking at the published ones of Julie Nutting in the July/Aug 2010 issue of Somerset Studio and I will be trying my hand at others. I am enjoying collage!

This is a graphic that I picked at the Graphics Fairy. I printed out on paper and layered with other papers and findings.  I hope she likes it.

These were created on printable fabric from graphics picked up from the Graphics Fairy, I then mounted them to wooden embroidery hoops and glued jute around for trim.

Mom, Happy Birthday to you.   I can't believe you are now 80!  Wow.  That is a landmark, I hope I make it to that #!  Here is the card that I have made for her....
