    Breast Cancer Awareness, Gel Press & An Altered Hat

    October 16, 2020 / 2 Comments

    I’m thrilled to be a new member of the Gel Press Creative team. I so love my Gel Press plates! Love them!

    Insert Your Life Story

    October 4, 2020 / No Comments

    Art Journaling can be a lot of ‘inserting your life story.’ When you put memories, colors, medium, findings like old paper or photos, efforts, time, and your feelings on a page . . . it can be some of your life story documented. That’s what art journaling is for me often. You? Are you taking time to document your life story? You matter! Warmest creative wishes,

    Voices Soft and Sweet

    September 25, 2020 / 3 Comments

    Today, boy do we need voices that are soft and sweet. I created this tag with a lot of Tim Holtz product and included a saying from one of his sticker sheets that reads ‘Voices soft and sweet.’ In this world right now, there are some voices that aren’t so soft and sweet. Sometimes our voices need to raise for certain reasons . . . certain reasons. Either way, what’s my tone? Am I being sweet? The world needs more sweet and less sour. Looking for other inspiration of other mixed media tags? You might enjoy THIS. Here’s what I used on the above tag and the simple how to:…
