I had so much pure fun doing this girl. She's all ball point pen scribbles!! The background is some watercolors, Unity stamps and Dylusions sentiment. I'm going to get some Sticklers to bling her up some more. Thanks so much to Ady Almanza for the great workshop. (http://adrianaalmanza.blogspot.com/) and all the amazing inspiration! Just as a side note. The toughest part about this project was not being able to blend. I'm so used to blending! But it was a great exercise. -Unity stamp set:http://unitystampco.com/shop/material-girl/
This one is by Julie Short. I absolutely LOVE this!!!!! Stop by her blog and let her know how fabulous it is. Julie

Hi everyone,
I wanted to share a card make by Laurie Finch. She used "Rin" and I'm just in love with this card. I hope you all like it also.

I've decided to add some new image to TSB. The store hasn't really been active for the last several months, but I'm thinking of slowly bringing it back to life. Some new images, maybe a DT call. I've really missed it.

I'm just so happy that it's a beautiful June day. None of my OK friends are in danger, my kids are all healthy, my husband is sweet as can be. The list just goes on and on. Can life be any better?
I'm blessed and I know it. That should be a song.
I thought I'd share an image with you guys today. Just 'cause I love ya. I hope you like it.
Our hearts are so heavy because of the madness in Boston. I thought giving an image might cheer up our spirits a touch. I hope so.
I'd love to see what you've created with the image. Just post to my FB page here
I can't wait to see!!
Enjoy this day we've been blessed with!

Hi everyone,
This is a sketch I worked on last night. I wanted to do something with
owls. I didn't notice it until it was online, but one eye is bigger than
the other. grrrr....LOL! I wonder why we can't see these things until
we see them on the web?
This is the most fun I've had in a long time. Life Book 2013
It's a year long mixed media class featuring gobs of fabulous artists. This week's assignment was using scales of light. I'm not finished with mine quite yet. I'm not sure what else to do.
I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend! :D :D :D
Hi crafty friends,
I was lucky enough to have another release this week. It's a favorite TSB image that is now a Unity image. He was previously called, "Birthday Bunny" and now I believe he's called, "Too Much Cake.: :)
I thought that was just too cute. Oh I just checked, it's actually "Eat ALL the cake" LOL!
