When I saw the topic for Illustration Friday this week I knew I had the perfect ATC.

Another fabric collage!

These are definitely going to be something you’ll be seeing more of. Love all the texture and movement you get with all the layers.

You can find this one in my esty store.


Do you make lists?
I do..constantly. It helps keep me on track. Otherwise I end up wasting a bunch of time on…something…anything…except what I really need to be doing.
I also love the satisfaction of crossing things off that list. Sometimes I even write down the thing I just did even though it hadn’t been on the list…just so I can cross it off. Quirky I know…but that’s just me. Take it or leave it….

My tea set today is actually a mismatched orphan set from my mom. I bet you wouldn’t have even guessed. The cup is from Germany and the saucer is from Austria. I think they look quite nice together.
My tea today was an organic Jasmine blossom Green tea. I’ve figured out that I really do not like flower teas. I don’t care for chamomile either.

I better get finished up…there’s a lot on my list!!
Go see what my friends are doing today…you’ll find the links on Kimmies blog.

It’s such a beautiful day!! It’s bright and sunny. A perfect day for a walk.
I love how warm the sun is this time of year in comparison to the air temp.

After going to get water at the spring I stopped by a local park to take a little nature walk.

I don’t think there will be any picnics today.

This is where the canoes are usually stored.

This cute little squirrel stopped to posed for me…wasn’t that sweet.

Just a few quick postcards…

My friend Patty let me know she got my package so, as promised, here is the full view of the fabric collage I created a while back.

I’ve been so inspired by others fabric collages in blogland but hadn’t ever attempted or even felt the inclination to attempt one until now.

I just kept layering pieces until I felt happy with it. The tree book page and the rust colored fabric were my starting point. I knew I wanted something dimensional so I searched through my jewelry stash and found this berry piece. I think it may have been a clip to dress-up a shoe in its former life.

I even got to use some of my CitroSolv background paper.

I’m definitely going to do some more work combining fabric and papers in the future.

Just got back from library duty at school. I’m having the last of the loose leaf tea my MIL gave me. It has a really good flavor.

I had to buy one of those tea ball thingies so I could enjoy the tea a while back. I know I had one years ago but somehow when I actually wanted to use it…I couldn’t find it anymore. Isn’t that just the way of things!

Stop by my Kimmies blog to see what my friends are up to today.
