while i was away

I want to share a few pics of what I was working on these past months when I wasn't blogging or goofing off on facebook. Bear in mind that neither of the cameras is working properly... okay well they are now but weren't when I took these photos. The young man that took care of Gypsy while I was in Ohio shares the same birthday as I do. Sooo we exchange gifts, belatedly. So I made him a thank you gift for caring for my precious girl and a belated birthday gift. It is an envelope that held the thank you note, a "painting", a rainstick and personalized pillow. with gift bag. Once again I apologize for the grainy darkness going on in the photos.

Rain, rain.....

It has been raining all day, so my moods been a bit blah. I've got work drying on a recycled shower curtain remnant on the kitchen floor. I watched "Battle for Terra", it was both beautiful and sad. Well to me anyway. Gypsy is horribly afraid of the rain so she has been in and out of the crate. More in than out. She just begins to pant and shake so hard that I eventually have to save her from her own fits. No matter how soft or hard the rain hits the house the fits are always the same. You know I love my dog, but there are days when she is an absolute pill. Today is one of those days. Anywho, I haven't been blogging cus I've been working on some really interesting projects. Keeping myself busy and trying not to stress over every little thing as I am wont to do. I still haven't figured out the new camera but as its the weekend and raining like Noahs on his way I guess I will do it now. There is love in my heart for you who are not there yet but soon will be. See u soon. La

Take two

I was trying to tell you about the cool crow ornaments I found over on violette clarks blog She also has a video showing how she and a few friends made the ornaments.


It is the entry dated Nov. 30 entitled crow orny and purse. I make ornaments for my daughters each year and was at a loss this year when I saw these cool crows. I put my own twist on things and made a black cat for Kat and a pig for Sely. I will share pics when I can. Ta for now.

This is so cool!

I always find the coolest things on facebook. Isn't this neat?

It's a beautiful thing!!!

Sometimes you run across a thing so good you just have to watch it over and over and each time it gets better and better. This is one of those times!

Ohio

went to see my parents, both are very ill. long story short, i made it back safely. what can i say, there will be alot of praying being done for my parents from here on out. needless to say my stress levels have been through the roof so i've been distracting myself with art. a very nice young man took care of gypsy while i was away. so i've been making wonderful little goodies for him, i will post those pics when i can. also before i left i rushed to get my 10 zines shipped out in time for the i heart zines swap, phew, that was fun but hellacrazy. also it was my first zine so there are a few things i already know i will be doing differently for my next zines. but i did enjoy it so i will make more. sadly i didn't really take any pics of them before they went out. you can see the envelopes though.
