Tattered Angels...more to see from CHA???

It looks like CHA hype is getting to a fevered pitch...the excitement is so obvious...I for one will have to be satisfied sitting here at my computer looking at sneak peeks. Although some sneak peeks from Tattered Angels have already been seen I have the feeling that there may be more coming...we'll have to wait & see.

Don't forget to check out the Tattered Angels blog tomorrow for the very talented Peg Hewitt to revel her Jan. projects. I would like to post my last but MOST favorite of the 3 projects I completed. Hope you like it...there is something so soft and uncomplicated about it. Let me know what you think...would love to know your thoughts about this piece.

Welcome to the blog world...

The blog world...a scary place if your new to it. For me I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed creating this blog. Every post adds a sense of anticipation...will anyone read this...will I have a new follower{s}...will readers be kind when they realize that I'm just a newbie. I can report a resounding YES to all the musings above. In 4-1/2 months I'm chugging along I have a small following, hopefully over time to build a larger group of followers.

With that said I would like to introduce you to a brand new blogger. Kathy is my friend, she has an incredible story and maybe someday she will share it. She is my enabler...LOL! Please help me welcome her to this world...QUEEN CREATIONS-KATHY GIELOW.

Before I forget {that won't likely happen as I am too excited}...will you be there to hear the big news and see some sneak peeks:


SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT....

TONIGHT...Will you be here?????



This is sooo exciting...I'm giddy with anticipation to see what is in store for us ;) I'll be there...will you?

Time flies...even when you're NOT having fun!

Holy Moly...where did this week disappear. Methinks it was going back to school after Winter break of 2 weeks...jumping right into end of the semester stuff...realizing that you didn't finish the curriculum AGAIN...exams coming up on Thurs. 1/14 & Fri. 1/15. I wish I had more time to do everything that I want to do...


I was able to finish putting together a project inspired by Tammy Tutterow's Happiness project...I've mentioned it before. I was so enthralled by the possibilities that I jumped in and created my version. The photo's aren't the best. I'm still working out the best lighting...probably outside but it was just too cold today. I'm thrilled with what I have so far...what do you think???? Let me know...I'm up for some constructive criticism ;)


The base for this projects is the 7Gypsies Library Card Drawer. So perfect for me as I am a life-long book lover and at one time wanted to be Librarian...just to be around books.

The following pictures are close-ups of each divider page. My intent is to add 4x6" LO's to each category, documenting the things in life that make me happy and that I am thankful for.

OWOH...this looks intriguing!!



I stumbled over this after following a link from Tammy Tutterow's blog...One World One Heart looks so intriguing and I'm going to do it. I {HEART} the blog world...I learn sooo much. Here is the Barbara Mason's blog that you can find all the info. on. Enjoy the eye candy :)

Started my 1st page for ART JOURNAL EVERY DAY with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer. I will share later but I had to come up with some of my own rules...

1st & FOREMOST...NO STRESS!!! 

2nd...I'm not going to use a journal...the thought of being restricted strikes fear in my heart. My journal will consist of pages from all the different Tattered Angels albums...the paper that is used is the best I have ever worked on...bar none. I will bind my journal at the end or 2011 that way I can use any assortment of paper shapes & sizes that I find. 

3rd and final rule...strive for 2 pages per week...if more than it's all gravy.

I've got to get to work...I need a 2 day work week and 48 hr. days the other 5...so much to learn, see  & do!!!

So far I'm loving 2011...how about you?
