a sunday sketch

Happy Saturday! Its been a busy week but my mind has been swirling with all sorts of crafty things. I did want to get this Sunday Sketch done that I started earlier in the week, for the sketch over at Studio Calico.

I used some photos from a night out with two of my most favorite ladies. Its simple, I dont love it, but I'm happy with it.

Time to get some chores done so then hopefully there is time for more craftiness. Enjoy your Saturday!

inspired this week

I was inspired by Donna Downey this week and last night had to rush home to play with image transfer onto canvas. I am so happy with the results and I am letting this play around in my mind while I decide what I want to do with this piece of canvas and what other wonderful things this new technique will do for me. Makes me happy.

I have a design for a new dress in my mind, bursting to become a real dress so I am going to try to create my design from random patterns that I have and use this fabric I've had for a year or so. Its been way too long since I've sewn anything, especially a dress.

Oh fabric, how I've missed you. Looking forward to my return to fabricland in a few weeks...

dance in the rain

I've been wanting to create an umbrella in Illustrator for quite a while, and I finally got around to making a quick one a couple weeks ago.

This is one of my favorite quotes. I love dancing in the rain.

I've been very un-creative lately, hoping to get a scrapbook page done this week for the Sunday Sketch at Studio Calico.

Thats it for now, thanks for visiting and happy sunday!

One World One Heart

Welcome to my blog! This is my first year participating in the One World One Heart event (read about it here) and I am excited to discover new creative bloggers from all over the world.

I am a travel agent living in northern Canada, and I try to do as much travelling as I can. I am perpetually behind on scrapbooking my travels but it is one of my goals to get caught up.

I started out in the crafty world with scrapbooking as a teenager. After college I got back into it and that segued into card making, book making, sewing and other creative pursuits. I recently took an online course to learn how to create digital images and I've fallen in love with digital creations as well.

I have four little prizes for visiting my blog. To enter, leave a comment. If you have a favorite, please let me know and if you are a winner I will send you your favorite if possible.

The event ends on Feb 17th and winners will be announced and notified that day. Winners will be randomly selected.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog!

not perfect

I attempted to make a felted elephant for my grandma's birthday. He didn't come out perfect, but good enough. I think she likes him.

The actually felting didn't seem to work too well. I will have to try again.

at the beach

Hola. I wanted to play along with the Studio Calico Sunday Sketch this week.

I came up with this page using pictures from the beach on our trip to Puerto Plata last Feb. Oh how I would love to be on vacation this week, its been nasty cold here.

I found this very exciting candle on clearance today during my lunch hour. It was sort of the high point of my day. That and some exciting napkins (also on clearance) for a special napkin party this weekend.

Thats all for now, thanks for stopping by!
