Okay..I had way more fun than my kiddo on this one. He came home with an assignment to make a vocabulary word poster. The catch was you had to illustrate it in a creative way.
The all school project was based on the book:
Miss Alaineus, A Vocabulary Disaster by Debra Frasier

I did some work in PSP today for a digital challenge posted on TheLatestTrendsinMixedMediaArts. It’s layers of digital ephemera and a picture taken by my neighbor with some filters thrown in for good measure.
It seems like an eternity since I’ve had a chance to sit and play in my craft zone. It was refreshing to be free to create. Life has been getting in the way lately. Such is life, right!
The puzzle piece will likely be sent as a postcard. Yes it is that large!
The two altered books spreads are in my “just for fun” book. That book is so fun…no theme, no expectations, only playtime!
I put together a house theme book with the tip-ins I received from a swap on ABC altered book club plus a couple pages of my own just for fun.
The image on the cover is the Hamm house which has been torn down. I got a book in the free bin at the library. It tell the stories of buildings and places in Minnesota that have been lost due to “progress”. I’m not entirely sure but I think the Hamm family is one in the same as the Hamm’s beer company…which is also gone. Although, I still can remember the theme song as well as Hamm’s bear from the TV ads…I may be aging myself with that declaration.
Ok so I’m a little bias…
My kiddo will be 8 on Monday. Tonight while eating his chicken tenders he shouts “I lost my tooth!” What..really…where did it go? We got out the flashlight…found lots of crumbs…a few stray wads of paper but no tooth. We are pretty sure it went down the hatch with a bite of chicken.
This is his solution to the problem.
