Deck Of Me cards


I am sorta WAY behind on my "Deck of Me" cards, so I have been busy working on them. I am not going in any order now, just going with the one that I have the most MO JO juices flowing for as I am going thru the list of 27 now, which will be changing shortly I know.


So here is my take on Week 4 Deck of Me ATC - 3 Words describing myself. The words I choose was "Goofy", "Free-Spirited", and "Creative"...which I think they all apply.
I hand stitched the 2 layers together then decorated with stash letters and embellishments. Or used my scrapbook markers from Creative Memories.
Week 7 - Talents I want to use. Actually I would love to just sharpen what I have.
(front side)Back side. I listed different "talents" that I feel the Lord has blessed me with: sewing and crafts, decorating cakes and floral arrangements, altered art and scrap booking, cooking and baking, embroidery....I thank the Lord for the "talents"/ skills that He has given me. Using my sewing machine I stitched different borders and dividers from corner to corner. I used my stamps on this ATC also.



More to come....Thanks for stopping by.

Day 3: Painting up the daises



This is part of the Summer Journal that Teresa McFayden is teaching this summer.
"A warm afternoon, soft breeze in your hair. You lounge on a cotton blanket beneath a tree, surrounded by daisies. A cotton ball cloud wisps across the sky. Before you, beside you, behind you, are winking and cheerful daisies. Can you imagine that feeling? Even better, imagine now that you have nothing else to do for an hour, but to study them."



Could you imagine getting lost in a daisy field watching them for hours. Doesn't it sound so peaceful and beautiful. I really had alot of fun making my field of daisies...

I love the quote that we used for this layout. It is by Anne Morrow Lindbergh.

"One can get just as much exaltation

in Losing oneself in a little thing

as a big thing.

It is Nice to think one can be

Recklessly lost in a daisy."

Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Isn't that just beautiful and makes you want to be in a field of daisies!

I just think my daisies turned out great. This is the first piece of "Art" that I have every painted..So I am proud of it.

Thank you for stopping by.

Love,
