I want to share a couple of my most recent pieces. I wish that I was a better photographer so that you could see everything at its best. I need to employ my sister Rhea as my photographer as she takes fabulous pictures..and is really good at Macro Photos. Anyway, I want to show you this case that I finally finished. I have been working on it for a while. I called it, "Bloom" and I think it would be a lovely Journaling case or Art Case but really, it could be whatever you wanted it to be. 
I painted both sides of this (in very good condition)brief case. The other side just says "bloom where you are planted". Side 2 also has some butterflies that I decoupauged on. I used a high gloss acrylic black paint for the sides of the case and the the tops.
I also want to show you this little shadow box I created with this little wooden box my mother picked up for me at a garage sale. She got a couple of them and this would be the first creation that I have come up with since I got them about a year or more ago.

I love the "Bloom" case! I especially like the stylized flowers on the front. :-) One of the latches on my hubby's briefcase broke so he got himself a new one (that makes him feel like an international spy for the U.S. because it is silver and metal *giggle*) and he offered me his old one. Perhaps it is worth me getting the latch fixed... (*ponders*)
yes, you should, but the funny thing about this one is that it says "property of US Government" on the bottom and my imagination took off. I thought, maybe it belonged to a spy or something. Maybe there is secret compartments? But, my rational self took over. heehee
Loving the briefcase!!!
