Blondie

Well, I did it.


I went blonde, something I have wanted to do for awhile. I love it. It's actually blonder than the picture. It was just SOOOOO windy Saturday, and I couldn't get a picture outside of the car without crying from the cold air.

What else is going on??

Well, today is a snow day. I woke up to the 5:45 a.m. alarm and woke up my daughter, but then I realized it was supposed to snow last night, so I turned on the local news. Sure enough, it snowed and there was no school. I have been up ever since. I feel a little nap coming on today.

Some news on the FEATURING Magazine front - There is a preview available at the FEATURING website. Check it out. Very exciting. And if you haven't signed up to be updated on the subscription, now's the time.  While you are previewing the magazine, click on the STAY INFORMED link at the top of the home page. This is going to be a great magazine.

Very exciting....did I say that already? Well, it's true.

Hope you are all staying warm on this wintery day.

Beautiful Annemarie!!!! Love the blonde. You are braver than me, I only did blonde highlights a few years back!! But alas, I have gone back to brown :-)

You you look great in blonde locks!!

We too have a snow day, it snowed on and off all day yesterday, and with the frigid cold temps the roads are icy.

Stay safe and warm. Hugs,

Carrie

Excellent! You'll now be able to test try the "blondes have more fun" phrase! Go bold, Blondie!

I Love Tissue Paper

Image
If you saw my Discipline collage , you can tell I have a thing for tissue paper. I have used it make inchies and to paint mountain/sunset scenes. Now I am working on some ATCs . I have done some before using the same cardstock I am using this time. However, I am tired of this background and want to alter it some how, so here's where the process went. (Note: I did try it on some sample-sized pieces of cardstock first so you might see those pop in from shot to shot.) I began with a plain piece of cardstock (it is supposed to be green/yellow.) I lightly drew a line on the card. I then squeezed some glue onto the card (don't ask why it's blue...that's another story.) I used scrap piece of stock to spread the glue to get a perfectly straight edge. I laid the tissue paper onto the wet glue and pressed out the bubbles. (You could use a brayer, it gets messy.) I trimmed the excess tissue. (I have torn it before, too, for a different effect.) After the glue dried, I took the c...

Change of Plans & Calendar Journal Time

Image
Well, as a family we were all going to use the long weekend to trek down to Texas and rip out carpet and paint walls. Come to find out, Gary doesn't have Monday off so it would make a really bad turn around time. So...we decided to stay home and make plans to go another time. Meanwhile, all I can envision is the money pouring out of my already empty pockets into the mortgage and utilities for a house we aren't using. :-( Now, I will look for some free activities to do in the city for the Labor Day weekend. I have seen several advertised on tv. I hope the temperature stays cooler than yesterday (102F.) Yesterday I lazed around the house feeling a little sorry for myself wondering why I don't have a job yet. So I got out my sketchbook and calendar journal and fiddled around. I have been thinking about working on a set of note cards to sell at some local gift shop. They would look like some of these: I just want to unify the theme of them so they seem more like a set. ...

December Here! Time Keeps Marching On

Image
...whether I am ready or not. November was a busy month, so busy that I would forget to write on my calendar journal page. I fortunately was able to go back and fill in most of the days. Here is next month's calendar. If you would like to play along for December, head on over to The Kathryn Wheel to see what everyone else is doing. December should be okay. Come mid-month, I will add an extra hour a day to my workday. That's a good thing. At the same time, the kids will  be home for Christmas Break...(I'm sorry, Winter Break! What the heck?!) Well, we will celebrate Christmas nonetheless. I am looking at making a trip to Chicago to visit my aunt and hopefully my mother will go up there. The problem with Chicago in December is the weather. You never know what the roads and flights will be like. I have only been to Chicago twice I think. It would be nice to see a different part of the family. It's still up in the air. I still have to work on my Sketchbook Pr...
