I don’t think there will be much on the crafty list for the next couple days. I made a B-day card for my brother-in-law but that’s about it. My hubby is on vacation this week so I have a feeling I won’t be spending much time crafting anything.
Tomorrow we’ll be having a PIRATE DAY. We bought the 3rd installment of the Pirates of the Carribean series and plan to watch it sipping on our rum drinks.
I’ll leave you with this page I made for a junk mail swap a while back.
Just wanted to let everyone know about a great site giving away ephemera for the holiday season.
You can find it at here.
Here are a couple more ATC’s from the background papers I made yesterday.
I’ve been at it again.
After moving snow yesterday afternoon and this morning, I thought I’d play a little.
First I took out watercolor paper and started making some backgrounds. I used paints, inks, gesso, embossing powder, PearlEx powder, foam stamps and papers scraps.
LAYERS, LAYERS, LAYERS.
****************
While waiting for those to dry I pulled out a book I started long ago with some tip-in from a swap. My theme for the swap was quotes. I used the book All I really needed to know I learned in Kindergarten by Robert Fulghum as my base. These are the pages I added today. They are worked in directly in the book…not as a tip-in.

After my backgrounds dried I cut them into 4×8’s for chunky book page backgrounds and 2.5×3.5 for ATC’s.
This is the ATC was made with one of my new backgrounds.
Yet another page in my “just for fun” altered book.
Here’s page that I did in my “just for fun” altered book. The book has no theme. It’s just a great place for me to play and experiment.
Here are more in the same book.
I was a busy bee this morning and got 4 more ornaments put together. Amazing what you can get done without the kids around.
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
