Happy Canada day!!!!! :)  YUP it's vacation time around my place and I'm hoping for a gorgeous day that I can be spending at my little outdoor market buying fresh vegetables! And this also means a new challenge over at  The East Wind  and it's about tearing paper up!!!!  Of course, if you are a subscriber to the newsletter (all free) you will have gotten a wonderful freebie image and this is the image that I played with! I decided to work in my homemade journal for this time. The background was made using some brushos and some Color burst from Ken Oliver. Super easy and fun and of course totally unpredictable that is the most fun of it all!!!!  The sentiment is from Dylusions and I used some teared up papers that I received in one of my swaps to do this.  The image was colored with my copics and then fussy cut. I hope that you will like this inspiration and that you will be coming over to play in our new challenge!  Most of all do REGISTER for the freebie

There was a fabulous new release this month over at  Karleigh Sue .  And today I get to share with you another one of them :) I chose to play with the wonderful  Jessica Jones .  I did this journaling page while I was away for a weekend with my friend Erin.  I wasn't quite sure what I wanted to do.. but I had been playing with magazine cut out and saw this great page that I thought would work fabulously with her. The bottom part of the page is done with a brown paper bag that the wine purchased came in.  The sentiment was found online and then I stamped it out individually to make it.  I lined the paper with some newspaper :)  Yup recycling at it's best.  The wonderful image was colored with my copics.  I even made her a plaid shirt!  I was very proud of that.  And then I fussy cut her out. I will be entering this in the following challenges: ccee stampers  - Mixed media Aud sentiments challenge blog  - Funny Sentiment - I think this one is pretty funny Craft

Hey!!!  It's Wednesday night and I am finally sharing the flip through of my 2nd mixed media journal that was just finished :) Thought I would share this on my blog as well for those of you that do not follow my youtube channel.  Here is my journal: And here is the flip through if you want to see it: Hope you all stay creative :)  See you soon!!!! Hugs

Hello and happy Monday to you all!  I'm here to share with you my very last make as an EDT design member of Rick St-Dennis.  I have had such a great time for the past year 1/2 and learned so much from Rick as well as from all the wonderful DT. For this last make I was really nervous because I wanted to do a really good job.  The image that I'm playing with really fits me I think lol minus the weird clothes... It's the great  Say what?!?  and I used her as the very 1st page of my new dylusion journal.  I have received this journal a full year ago from the wonderful Paola Jofre.  And because it's a dylusion journal I was having issues actually playing with it.  I know it's silly but that's what it is.  I tend to have trouble using what I totally adore... something to work on. Anyway, I figured this post for RSD would be the perfect opportunity to finally use it! I printed my image really large and colored her with all kinds of different colors that I would

Wow it's so very quiet on my blog isn't it... not blogging as much as I used too.  Doing more videos and trying to do new mixed media things. Somehow I've started to associate my blog with my dt work... but I have to start blogging back just for the fun of it the way that I used to before!  So I figured on this beautiful Sunday morning, I would do just that. 1st of all Happy Father's day to all the great fathers out there.  I'm blessed for having the best of them as my father and having found the best one for my kids :)  How can 1 girl be so lucky?  I don't know but I feel blessed for this. What have I been up to?  Well last weekend I went crafting with my friend Erin (met through blogging!!!  that's why I have to bring back my blog to life).  We met 1/2 between our two places in Ogdensburg.  We had found a little family motel where we got a HUGE room and were able to craft to our little hearts desire.  I have to admit being super teary eyed when it ca
