About Me

My photo
Without making myself sound too boring, I will say I am married for 34 years and have one married daughter and 3 grandchildren. I work part-time doing independent contract work for retail stores and also work for the Catholic Schools Lunch Program. Enough to keep me in spending money! I belong to several online art groups, the biggest being AAWA. This group has expanded my horizons in mixed media artistry. I enjoy altering items such as cigar boxes, bottles and books to name a few. I like to do collage, iris folding, ATCs, 4x4s, inchies,and plain old card making. I have dabbled with clay, made domino jewelry and glass slide pieces. I don't mind trying new things, but I am a visual person and need to see an example or have hands on guidance. Maybe that's an age thing!

Cake baking day at my house...

Cake decorating is the other art form that I have practiced for 30 years. I have come out of cake decorating retirement to make my neighbor's daughter's wedding cake after much pleading and begging from them! So today I am baking wedding cake for 225 guests. Luckily it is a cool breezy fall day so baking is not heating up the kitchen too much. I do declare though this is my last wedding cake as it is a lot of work and I'm getting too old for this stress!!


I've posted several pics of the cakes I've done in the past.

I love the look of your cakes Gloria - now if you could just figure out how to bake them without adding the calories!
