Funky Art Journal Entry

Today's art is an inspiring journal entry. I was inspired by a piece I bought on ebay that was very colorful. It had inspirational journaling all over it. Mine does not have near as much but I'm getting a little more comfortable with this form of art. Some day, someone will find all of my art journals and say,"she was kinda crazy huh?" Here it is: It was done with watercolor and gel pens. I love gel pens. Gel markers...not so good but gel pens...FABULOUS FLOW!!!! I attached this piece to another piece of watercolor canvas by sewing it with a brightly colored (lime) embroidery thread.

All in all it was a fair day. No major problems except that our romantic weekend has gone from staying in a nice hotel with a hot tub to staying in our travel trailor and sharing our tiny bathtub-teehee (wait it gets worse)...so we hear it is supposed to snow and freeze in Lubbock this weekend so now we don't know where we will go or what we will do. It is actually kind of comical. I know that as long as we are together, we will enjoy ourselves!

Paper Flowers and Fabric Flowers

Well, I'm kind of in a creative funk again. I hate it when this happens! I'm so glad that next weekend I am going to Fredricksberg, TX again to the trade days. I know it will inspire me in all kinds of directions. Meanwhile, while I am trying to get my groove back........I have been making a lot of little short term projects in the paper department. I made this little posey pin from faux vintage post/letters etc papers from the scrapbooking department. I actually wore it yesterday on my jacket. Then I spotted this book on Fabric Flowers by Elizabeth Helene Searle at the fabric store and I had to get it. I used her instructions to make this first fabric flower. I want to try several of her other flowers instructions. Now, what will I do with them? Who knows? Does it really matter if I am enjoying myself? Probably everyone will get fabric or paper flowers for Christmas! Heehee Have a great day.

Etsy Treasury

I got an ETSY Treasury today! Look what I made! Go and check out the real thing here, it took me an hour to figure out how to just get a snapshot for the above photo. Rediculous. YOu should be able to just have some html and share the dang thing! Anyway, here it is, I would appreciate any views and/or comments. Hugs

Some Work Humor

Cows...A Poem by Richard Armous Cows Do nothing but browse And drowse And now and then moo. That's all they do. Yet even while grazing They aren't lazing. Even while snacking They aren't slacking. If not illustrious Thay are inner industrious, Making milk with all their might. With every bite. Cream too, With every chew. I'd like it fine Could I combine In such measure Business with pleasure . Happy Friday from the Funky Art Queen.
