Wedding Album Pictures

Hello Everyone!

I recently finished the pages for my 18" x 18" wedding album and posted the pictures to my Scrapbook.com gallery.  You can enjoy them by clicking  here.  This picture is of the cover of the album.  I covered the original book with fabric, and then embellished it with feathers, beads, and my favorite flower, a gerbera daisy.  Enjoy!

Time to CREATE!

So one of my newest friends shares the creative spirit with me and I was more than happy to assist her in trying to be creative when I realized that we all need some inspiration from time to time.  I decided to gift her something I had made for Christmas, I just had to come up with what it would be.  I found a picture of some "springy" letters, and decided to make my own.  The word create kept coming to mind, so I used that and painted the letters first.  Then I embellished each one with a different material, and worked on bending some wire for the springs.  I enlisted the help of my husband and he cut the block for mounting and helped me decide what glue to use for the spring joints.  We settled on a two part epoxy and the result turned out amazing.  The only thing I am more proud of than the final outcome is the place it now resides.... :-)

Spring Wreath

Hello All...

Boy is this a cold winter in Minnesota... To spread a little "light at the end of the tunnel" cheer, here is a pic of my front door spring wreath.  I love gerbera daisies and thought the bird was too cute to not include.  The wreath is a wire form with a greenery bush that I separated out and attached, then with lots of gerbera daisies and the bird glued in.  I can't wait till it's seasonally appropriate to put it out!
