Garage Sale Treasure Hunt!

 Last Saturday morning, I went on a treasure hunt, traveling from garage sale to garage sale (and even to a few estate sales) searching for pieces of old jewelery and odds and ends that I could use on my art cards.


 As you can see, I was very successful! I can't to start adding these bits and pieces to collages!


I sometimes get funny looks when I make my purchases. Who gets excited over a bag of old keys? I certainly do!

It's HERE!!!

So here it is - my new class! Introducing...FANTASTIC FLORALS!
I can't tell you how much fun it was to spend my time creating all these lovely blooms!  Talk about joy!
I hope you love them as much as I do - 20 pages of detailed instructions on how to create 45 different flowers - including a flower lettering style! For the same price as all of my other classes - $20 Cdn or US.


Like all of my classes, this class in is pdf format - it comes to you through e-mail, so you can work on it at your own pace, with as much (or as little) interaction from me as you like!

Weeds

I am currently experimenting with different types of flowers, as I am working on a new online course, Fabulous Flowers!  These dandelions are one of the flowers that I came up with tonight. 

More Cards!

So due to an accounting error my internet and my cable tv was disconnected from Thursday to Sunday.  I ended up spending the weekend in my art room, watching all of the Godfather movies, and making more cards for the sale I will be in next weekend.  Here are a few that I am particularly proud of...ENJOY!

Made by You Monday

This is a card that I have made for the upcoming craft sale I am going to be a part of on April 16th.  I think that it would make a beautiful Mother's Day Card. It features some of my crocheted flowers that are so much fun to make!

Illustration Friday: Cultivate

A snippet from my art journal, for Illustration Friday's prompt:  Cultivate.

Banff

Here is one of my favourite cards that I have made recently.  This is a postcard of Banff, Alberta, about 5 hours from my home.  A place of some lovely family vacations... I got this great postcard from a collection of things that were my grandmothers, and I though it paired up perfectly with this bathing beauty!  A place of great Canadian fishing, I thought the fish fly cufflink was a great addition.
