Holiday Cards
I made holiday cards for each of my sisters last year. I used chipboard children's book pages and decorated them with one holiday on each page. I took the books apart and ran ribbon around the edges to make each separate holiday card. I decorated wooden boxes, lined them with felt, and included a photo stand with the seasonal cards in each box. I loved making them and they were warmly recieved. Here are a few sample pages:
Back at it
Wow - nearly 9 months since I've been on this blog. What happened? My scanner died, my camera broke, my phone died, needed a new computer, was ill. All of this cramped my creativity to say the least. BUT...I'M BACK!!! Still no scanner, but I am using my new cell phone camera and iphone software to share my latest creations.
My sisters, Denise and Cathie, with me in the middle. We got together with little sister Cheryl to celebrate my 60th birthday the weekend of January 27. We took a trip to Shipwreck Beads in Olympia where we all bought beads and made bracelets to remember the weekend by. I'll upload a pic of my bracelet as soon as I can get a good photo.
