New home - come on over

My blog has moved. Come on by for updates on collage, painting, and a life in the arts. Lots of tips and pointers too. Please join me here.

Holiday Wishes

With Thanksgiving coming, I ran card-making classes with my elders. I brought glue, scissors, card stock, and lots of precut autumnal paper, especially my favorites from Impression Obsession. Of course lots of leaves leaves (IO#030-S) but what really tickled their fancy were the black cats  (IO#083-K). So here is mine, made a few days later, with a tip of the hat to all my wonderful students.

O and of course the little birds (IO#154-A)  The card goes out this week to my mother-in-law, who have two fine indoor black kitties. I'm sure they are watching the birds right now.

Beach Daydream

Today's still heat reminds me of the beach. So I traveled there too,  in my paper dreams, for the Impression Obsession challenge. This card collages torn papers, acrylic, and Impression Obsession die cuts.

It's late in the day. Everyone's gone to the clam shop. The birds are overhead; the bunnies sneak on to the dunes, to nibble grass. Maybe it's after labor day.
Time for rest and clear ocean sky.
