Musings, pondering & a book review...

Holy Mackarel I can't believe that I haven't blogged in 11 days...what was I doing???  I like everyone else was paying attention to all the Winter CHA 2011 reveals...I was overloaded with a case of TOO MUCH EYE CANDY. 


I participated in the Scrapbook Royalty Live @CHA and was introduced to artists, companies and products I wasn't familiar with. There were Make & Takes provided by several companies...Scotch Adhesives, Prima, Faber Castell just to name a few that came with Swag Bags received when you purchased a 3 day pass. Several artist's stopped by and did quick demos. I was so impressed by Dyan Reaveley, check out her DYLUSIONS stamps...so quirky & fun.


I actually had to take a break and let it all sink in...so many THINGS I knew I HAD to have...now that I've had a chance to reflect I can put it all in perspective and actually separate out the WANTS from the REALLY WANTS!!! I was on CHA overload and I didn't attend...go figure! I'm now making a list according to priorities.


I've been working on my Tattered Angels DT projects for Feb. The assignment was METAL...well let me tell you...another match made in heaven. I can't wait to show you but it will have to wait until Feb. 22nd. You must mosey on over to the Tattered Angels Blog and check out what the fab DT Angels have created so far this month.

Last but not least I have immersed myself in this book I discovered...The Creative Entrepreneur by Lisa Sonora Beam. If you haven't read it yet I highly recommend it for all the artists that want to "MAKE BUSINESS IDEAS REAL". Since I have been following along with Julie Fei-Fan Belzer and ART JOURNAL EVERYDAY I'm finding so many sites dedicated to this art form...very interesting and yes I have been doing it...not everyday but 2-3 every week. Maybe I will share some of my pages at a later time.


Here's a little sneak peek of one of my projects ;)Talk to ya'all soon {in my best southern accent...NOT}!
