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!

Halloween Campout!




We had our annual Halloween campout this past weekend complete with costume contest and Jack-0-lantern carving contest! It was windy and chilly but all the better to make Witche's Stew! Everyone adds some meat and a veggie of their choice and throw it all in a big black kettle (a.k.a. cauldron) over a big fire........yummm. These are some of our friends in their costumes. Can you guess what we were?

In the Halloween mood



I've been in the Halloween mood and decided to make a couple of cards for the occasion. It's kind of fun to do something out of the ordinary because I don't usually do cards for this holiday. Enjoy.

Fall Decorating




This is my favorite time of year and I just did some decorating outside along our carport. My husband built this flower box and I have elephant hostas growing in it during the summer, but now I've added some fall colored mums and pumpkins. There are also some red salvias showing beyond the hostas also.
