Welcome to my blog-I hope you enjoy!

"Fragments Of The Past"

 Art For The Creative Mind is having a cigar box swap.  Theme is "Fragments From The Past" 
It was so much fun going though all my vintage junk or treasures and to fill the box. I used Graphic 45 papers  to line the box and to make the dividers.  I choose to leave the box as is-the cigar box images where just to fantastic too cover.

"Dorothy Where Are You?"

 Theme for book shadow box swap was "Dorothy Where Are You"  (Art For The Creative Mind)  I used an old French Dictionary.  I glued the out side pages and clovers together and cut though them. (I saved the pages for other projects)  I then glued the pages together on the in side.  Then just had fun embellishing.
Another fun swap "Art For The Creative Mind"

4 by 4 inch quilts

Art For The Creative Mind had a 4 by 4 inch quilt swap.  I did not join in on the swap, I did not think I would be able to fine the time.  When I did I did a couple of them up.  It was something a little different I enjoyed doing them.

"Art Speaks In Volumes" Round Robin

 This is T.J.'s book-her theme "Strong Powerful and Influential Women".  There are so many-so I kind of went though history and pick a few.  Great theme!

Hand Made Paper Beads

"Art For The Creative Mind" had a paper bead swap. Aren't all the bead to wonderful. I added bead caps to the end of the beads to give them the look of belonging together-even with each bead being totally different. I love this necklace and will enjoy showing it off. Thanks TG for a fantastic swap.

Had fun decorating these bottles. They are filled with little treasures.
