Altered Round Robin Book Swap









Here is the altered book that I have been working on. All that needs to be completed is the front cover and spine lettering. It was fun and thought provoking. Will be sending it out the first week of May sometime. Now, on to some canvas paintings of flowers that I was requested to place in a local open house for a new aromatherapy business opening.

New Resident


Had to share a photo my husband, Bob, took of the bird nest made in the light fixture above our sliding glass door of the deck. She took residence at the end of March, and she has been minding her nest. The nest is plainly visible from our kitchen window and we can watch her sitting on her nest. I am sure we will be blessed with seeing her eggs hatch. Bob turned off the light so that she will not be disturbed and so that no harm will come to her and her nest.

new buttons





Today I went to the MSBS Button meeting and found some buttons in the "poke box". Most of them were wooden buttons, and others miscellaneous. I found two fabric buttons, one a really nice fabric button, known as a "passementerie" button.... I love these handmade older buttons.

new art trading cards


Just finished these last night in between waiting for gesso to dry on book pages. They were fun to draw.
