Fun with Fabric Technique

I did a background on 2 pages (using the sponge technique/colors: blue, red, yellow, and silver). I found a piece of fabric with an image that was printed on it that had a white background with a green border. I did use an iron-on (Pellon Wonder-Under Transfer fusing Web) however; it did not have a sticky back when I took the paper backing off. Don't know what I did wrong (ironed it for 30 seconds), but whatever I did, it did not work. Soooo, I decided to water color the surrounding space between the figure and the border in an aura like manner. After it dried, I sprayed the back with Elmer's Craft Bond and immediately placed it on my page. I used some glitter glue to surround the image. I like the result, although it was not all that creative. I enjoyed learning from others in Elizabeth's AB 101 Group, regarding fabric and use of clay. I had no clay or I would have tried something. We are nearly finished with our lessons.

old friends celebrate

I was invited to a group birthday celebration lunch with schoolmates that I haven't seen for a while. I had a FABULOUS time and laughed and laughed. We hung out for about 3 and a half hours at Leoni's Restaurant and it went by like a flash! I am the one on the extreme left, then sits Linda Jo, Terry, Annie, Janice, and Lois. It was decided that we would meet more often for no reason at all. I loved it.

Button Club Tea Party

Our button club hosted a neighboring state button club and we had a great day. The Keep Museum in Monson made a great place to celebrate. The food was excellent and the auction went very well. See the photo of the cupcakes with the button decorations along with photos of the donation table, luncheon, and auctioneer, Tamara! Thanks to my cyber friend, Carol, who led me to the website where I found the directions for the cupcakes. They added to the ambiance of the occasion. If you click on the photos that are partially shown, they will appear on your screen.

Pretty in Pink

Here she is, my godchild, Jasmine. She stayed overnight Friday and we had a lot of fun. She saw this hat perched on top of a lamp and asked to try it on. After looking in the mirror, she decided that she didn't like it. I may paint her portrait with this hat on..... one day she may change her mind!
