Update on Art Swap and Lots of Exciting News

Ok, I'm officially in a manic state! I think I am feeling the hints of spring. It has been getting sunny and warmer around here. Things are starting to feel a little pre-spring. I know myself....after 43 years of life (I should hope so-heehee) and I know that this is by far my most happiest time of the year for me now and historically.

I just get this happy feeling.....I get to be outside more and feel the sun on my face a little (with SPF of 15 or greater of course). I am thinking about getting my yearly pedicure (heehee) don't you feel sorry for that nail tech? But, I got to get my feet ready for sandal weather soon!

I'm just excited about life. So many things are happening! My job is going great, my kids are doing great, husband is looking really great because he started working out.....my creativity is flowing......things are good. Thank you Lord!
I have scheduled a mixed media class for March 1st at the Hobby Lobby in Midland and I am preparing for that. I'm very excited about that because I love teaching others about the joys of art and creating.


Now, the news about the art swap. I received some photos from Susan at A Walk in the Park regarding the swap loot she received. -I'm trying to swindle her out of the crown stamp! You can see the pics above. I still need to hear from a few of the others to complete this swap. I want to make a mosaic of all of our pics of loot to post here.....so, please send pics soon.

That is a fine batch of swag!
The weather here in northern Cali has been teasing us. A few days of sunshine, followed with a few days of bitterly cold rains. Burrrrrrrr.

You crack me up. My toes are screaming for a pedicure! I leave for a Crafty cruise next week, and I so need to get the ol roots and hoofs done!

Ayeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

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.
