Finally!!!!!

Wow....... I knew it had been a long time since my last Blog but since December!!!!!! I had a lot going on. My Dad passed away last month :( It was a hard end to the month. Not sure where the time has gone either. But I have been creating which is a good thing and great therapy.
I was able to get my paws on some Julie Nutting stamps and I love them!! Ellen Hutsons store had them and they are now sold out. I was lucky to find them, if you want to see if she has any back in stock or you want to be told when they are back in stock. Go to www.ellenhutson.com then check under stamps and then prima. Here are some of my latest creations I am sorta teaching myself mixed media along with the help of some videos out there and some fabulous creators like Donna Downey at http://www.donnadowney.typepad.com/  Traci Bautista at http://kollaj.typepad.com/kollaj/  and of course Julie at  http://www.julienuttingdesigns.blogspot.com/ I could go on and on.
My first canvas using one of the paper doll stamps.


My second canvas not finished yet. I love that new tissue paper from Tim Holtz.



Here is the finished product. I added a few extra elements. Not sure if I can call it finished just yet. Lol
I made this tag from one of the stamp packages. They come on a large tag so I thought why not gesso it up and do a background and add this sweet paper doll

 Thank you for stopping by and have a sunny Sunday!

Hi there,

12 Tags of Christmas with a feminine twist!

Hi there,
Today I would like to share a tag I made for the CLASSroom. Ellen is doing the 12 tags of Christmas with a feminine twist you can find it here http://ellenhutson.typepad.com/the_classroom_new/ . There are so many lovely tags!!! The artists share so many awesome techniques. I cannot pick a favorite they are all so beautiful. Here is my tag. I used memory box die and a dylusion stencil, along with some distress ink and some shimmer spritz. My sentiment is from Tim Holtz. My tag today was inspired by Teri Anderson. :)



It's begining to look a lot like Christmas!
