New Web Site

Hope everyone is having a great week ! My heart goes out to all of those that are in the "flood trail " !  How devastating that is. And to those in Texas suffering from the drought . We are all faced with challenges, praying that we all have the wisdom and strength to endure and overcome all !!

I wanted to also announce a new web site , not new but remodeled and updated ! Check it all out and all that is offered on Altered Pages  and sign up for the mailing list , check out all of the design team members , I am proud to say I am one , the Patriotic Banner is one of the kits you can order ! Have fun looking and get your creativity going !!

May day gone bad

Many times when we think May day we think flowers , candy...ect....! Well not here, we have had a major winter storm Friday eve with high winds and tons of snow ,but the worst was no electric . We are still out of electricity and this is Monday. I am using my daughters I pad to check my blog...yeah I pad ! Big lesson learned through it all, know how to really be prepared. So glad it will be in the 60's today ,but I am praying they get the lights on !  My Jeep covered with snow , didnt park in the garage as it "was" a nice day !!!

Easter Blessings

Hope you all have a very Blessed Easter !

This is a little vintage paper cross I have had for many years, I always like to display it at Easter time.

The scripture at the bottom is from Is 43:1

Fear not for I have redeemed thee...

On My Table

I have been busy with creating , or should I call it playing ? Created a collage using dress form die from Tim Holtz, various papers and embellishments later this is what I ended up with !

For some up-coming projects I also made some paper clay "beads" . They have words on them such as HOPE , DREAM , WISH .

Another paper collage , using bird cage die cut from Tim Holtz also.

A little  bird that I created using some adorable text fabric , sitting in a silver stem cup.

Love the little added bling on the cup ( from my vintage jewelry stash ) ! The tags NEST were from the Altered Pages . Well I better get back to my craft table ! Have a wonderful & creative day !
I am linking to very merry vintage style   link party , so stop over and check out all of the love !

Happy St Patrick's Day & New Stuff !!

Happy St Patrick's Day ! Sweet little tea cup with some of my vintage jewelry beside it , the shamrock is actually velvet, it is so sweet !!

I have been trying to create this past week whenever possible ! I am listing these vintage spool note holders in my Etsy shop .
Also have been doing some collage on canvas. This is one that I did yesterday , not sure if I am done with it !

I also used some paint with a shimmer to it , not sure if it really shows up. Gotta get movin , have a hair apt this AM & I so need it !! Have a wonderful day !

Will it Arrive?

Will it arrive ? Spring that is !!  This has been a brutal winter and it seems as though it just goes on and on !! Yesterday was so nice out with snow melting, how wonderful that was ! This AM though , we had "icey" rain  , now turning into snow! Fortunately it is not suppose to last long !  With the weather keeping a lot of folks a little blue , I have been creating some paper flowers , creating my own spring I guess ! Parer flowers that I will use in some projects I am working on ! Love working with paper ! These are some quilled flowers, paper swirls and the fans from a die .

Have a wonderful weekend
