Mixed Media Classes

IT'S HERE! My poster from Shutterfly came in today. It turned out nice. This photo is not that great but the poster is so wonderful to me. I am going to use it to advertise for my mixed media classes. I have been working on my class activity plans and hope to have everything ready by next week to present to one of the craft stores I frequent as a proposal to teach mixed media classes. I have been ecouraged and redirected many times by a dear friend of mine to do this. It is what I love the most, teaching and inspiring others. I may never sell my art but if I can encourage one person to explore their creativity....well then, that is where I get my joy and passion. I already have a few students in mind for my classes.

I wanted to share this pic of my hubby. He had his 45th birthday this week. He is so fabulous, I made him a German Chocolate cake (His favorite). I cheated and used a cake mix for the cake but I did make a homemade cooked frosting for him. We also got him one of those fancy smancy turkey friers because he wants t0 make shrimp boil like my brother-in-law. So, we are looking forward to his trying that out. Happy Birthday My Love. You Are My Rock!

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.
