{Antique Bits Chipboard Journal Album}

January 8, 2018

I received this publication before Christmas, but never got around to sharing it here. I am so ticked to see it (or anything) in print. It has been gone since last February, and the actual journal just came back today in the mail.

I created this using an embossed (cover) chipboard album that measures 7 1/4 x 6 inches. Then I filled each chipboard page with fabric, antique laces, buttons, and old antique photos. There are also some fabric and crocheted flowers throughout the album. I then tied ribbon and little wooden spools along the edges.

I hope you enjoy it also! Always fun to see your art after it has been away so long!

{Rosebud Corrugated Tags – Somerset Life}

September 21, 2017

I received some happy mail yesterday. Last March, I sent in my Rosebud corrugated tags and was thrilled to see them in the publication flesh! They are in the Somerset Life October/November/December Issue and featured on pages 92 – 94. It is always a thrill to see your work in print and I am honored.

{Floral Sentiments Chipboard Journal}

August 18, 2017

I wanted to share my most recent publication with you. In the July/August issue of Somerset Studios on pages 83 – 87. This article features two different looks using the same journal. Today, I am sharing the more colorful version. It features Red Lead images, reproduction stickers, French dictionary paper, buttons, monograms and other embellishments. The journal was created on a kraft chipboard journal that I added a spine to (Zutterbind.)

I hope you are enjoying the last days of August. I cannot believe yet again how quickly the summer went.

{Garden Gate Fabric Collage}

August 1, 2017

Happy August Everyone!
I wanted to share a “sneak peek” of my project “Garden Gate Fabric Collage” with Mixed Up Magazine. This is a digital magazine that you can purchase and read online. It has so many different types of projects in each issue.

This is the link to pocketmags where the magazine can be purchased: https://pocketmags.com/mixed-up-mag and this is the website for more information: https://www.mixedupmag.com/

I hope you have been enjoying your summer. The past two months, I have been moving again…twice in 10 months! Phew! I have been in my new place for a week now (July 24th which was also my 3 year stroke anniversary), and still unpacking. How do we accumulate so much stuff? I miss creating very much, and hope to be back in the swing again soon!

Stay cool!
