A Work Of Heart – Resin Pendants

These pendants are from Tuesdays class @ A Work Of Heart They were fun to make. I learned a new art skill & had a good time.

The 17 of cups -  A Hope dominio – and a Songbird dog tag…

I would like to use this  technique with some penny round metal as well as some marble penny round.

I have the resin which look forward to using it..

the art I get to live with

I loved this so much it is now a permenant part of me…..

These Hands

These are my hands.

Is left wrong or just not right?   3-7-10      These are the hands that have made this book. These are the fingers that will hold the pencil that will paint, draw, express & fill these pages with whimsical, wonderful,weird, wild and other profound pictures, prose, poetry, publications. Please tread, tromp + treat delicately this delightfully decidant, delicious, debacle of my most magnificant & magical mind dump. Thank you.

Magical Winged Boots – Journal Page

This is a page from the book I have been using Journaling Bliss. I am taking the ideas from it as well as instruction. So I am not so sure why the boots are so big and the world is so little but I like it.

Ok,  I would love to say this was an original idea & it was mine.. But, It wasn’t. It was from a paper scarpper mag. I don’t remember which one.. AH HA research project! But I like it. I made several but this is the only one I have a photo of It was a gift for my CM consultant Ellen Berk.

 Last time I was there it was still on her dining room table..

They were easy & fun to make.
