My wylde woman

Hi everyone, just a quick post before i head off to Florida !  yes i'm off to the sunshine state for some sun rays can't wait driving down with my family this friday.
 But i had to share with you a fun day i shared with friends
 last week at my house. We had a play day and we made wylde women pins i should have taken pictures of  all of them but in the excitement we forgot. I will get pics though to share with you.   We all used our embellisher machines to make the fabric backgrounds and we made paper clay faces that we painted.  I used wire and beads for arms and legs. It was such a laugh !!! here is mine... complete with handbag ! and check out her wonderful heels... i used a sizzix die for them and cut them from stiff card stock covered on both sides with silver plumbers tape. if only getting new shoes was that easy for us lol !!!  see you when i get back !!

My first journal page !

Well i finally got around to finishing my first journal page ! i followed the free online class at Strathmore  online journal site which you can find HERE.  It was taught by Pam Carriker recycling art and adding different techniques.  I promised myself to try new things this year and try and create at least every week well up to now i have managed to do a little.  The first part of the next set of lessons is out but you can still do the first ones.
