Peridot

Peridot

I have been painting a lot of green papers this week

for bookbinding projects. I used some of one of the

papers to make a quick card with one of my favorite quotes.

This is my entry to Created By Hand, Crazy Amigos and

Paint Party Friday.

Photos Live Here

A Photograph Stirs the Soul

One of the many photo albums I have been binding lately.

I covered the boards with some of my marbled paper.

I like the big black spots....some of which have quite a few

tiny white speckles.....oops, air pockets.

I made a decorative plate for the front cover.

You can see another photo album here.

This is my entry to Paint Party Friday and

Created by Hand.

Connections I

I Am the Connections That I Weave

I find one of the best points about blogging is that it allows me

to weave quite a few connections in many

different and interesting directions.

My trusty screw punch was again,,,called into action.

Various watercolor stripes are connected by metallic threads.

The quote is from Suzanne at Quiet Fire Design in Canada. She

has been busy creating new quotes as well as giving her website

a fresh coat of paint. Go connect for yourself.

I am linking this to Simply Less is Moore as well as

Created by Hand which is Quiet Fire´s weekly challenge.

Today

Light Tomorrow with Today

Circles, dots and spots. I gave my

Japanese screw punch a workout today.

This is my entry for Created By Hand.

The quote is from Quiet Fire Design.

Outside My Window

Outside My Window

Outside my window I see many different

flowers....all in beautiful bloom.

I stamped a flower and doodled a frame

with my trusty pilot pen.

Recycle

Meow

I like to recycle store bought greeting

cards that people send me.

Here I used a cat that I received.

I cut it out and added a crown.

I mean every princess needs a crown,

just ask Kate if you don´t believe me.

A few crowns were

stamped on the white card and a few paw

prints around this lilac persian. I topped it

off with some vellum, jewel studded brads

and fibers.

Want to see another princess?

This is my entry for Created By Hand.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
