I’m on a roll…

I can’t seem to stop making ATC’s!

It’s a great way to use up scraps!!

I felt the need to make something… ATC’s seemed like the perfect choice since they are small and make it easy to use up scraps.

I came across a link at Frugal Dad to an amazing set of photos. I was so intrigued and captivated by these photos I just had to share.

The 70 photos are at the Denver Post site.

…things just don’t turn out as planned.

This is what came out of my oddball brain after a few mistakes.

Maybe I need to take a break from the madness for a little while…at least until the kids get back to school. Maybe then I’ll be able to complete a thoug….

Oh,sorry… what was I saying…?!

Random thoughts rein supreme around here these days.

Here’s tiny 4×6 inch canvas I made yesterday from scraps as I was attempting to clean up my art zone. Of course, I got distracted…

I finally got around to making this little cabinet into a wardrobe for my Dress Up Project dresses.
I may still play around with distressing the brown. It was going to be more of a dry brush look but I got little heavy handed and had to go with it.

The little dresses look so cute on the little hangers.

Wowsers…August snuck up on me. I had to quickly whip up this dress so I wouldn’t fall behind the rest of the Dress-up project participants.

I call it the Summer of Love sundress.
The fabric was scavenged from a pair of pants my son wore many, many years ago. I had fun drawing on the fabric with markers before sewing. 

I was going to make a mini replica of my flag twirler outfit from high school but decided that would be just too difficult to figure out on the fly. Maybe I’ll make it for October…like homecoming. My junior year when I was a flag twirler was my best year of high school…so many good memories. Hard to believe my 20yr reunion was just last week! Although, I skipped it. :)

Don’t forget to check out all the other August Dresses over at the Alice and Camilla blog.
