Shrink Art Embellishments




















I made these for the By the SEA ATC fatbook hosted by Bee Shay.
I stuck them on glue dots.....don't they look like candy??

Me & Shelly

Butterfly Ornaments

ArtFest Altered Deck


















Another suit complete, this one is for Kim.....now only two more to go!
Altering playing cards is fun. I followed Kim's advice and painted the cards. Then I went at it adding collage elements, some scraps, a stamp or two, brads, eyelets and even stitches. I love seeing them all together!

A Nest 4 Me and You














Today I found this wonderful old flour sifter at the salvation army.
I plan on making it into a shrine. I can see a little bird's nest tucked
into the cup along with some other bits....making us a cozy little home.

Lovingly I love You
