Shadow Box Art




This is a shadow box I finished today. It was inspired by my Grandma. It is all about her. Well, not all about her, but some things. It mostly focuses on the fact that she was a seamstress. However, there was a lot more to her then that. This is just what I was thinking about at this time.

The old sewing machine is actually one of my first transparencies sewn over a pattern piece...see it peaking through?

FAQ, this is neat. My friend Kelly will love this--she's always doing things like that.

I received my BEAUTIFUL piece of art today, Leslie, thank you so much! You are full of talent, and it's clearly visible in that piece. Big smooches, FAQ. xoxoxo

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.

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.
