Beautiful leaf stain and leaves

 Found on Betsy's driveway in N. Carolina.  Just love the stain image!

Christmas cards and work from Heather Held's Workshop

 This workshop was a delight and I used what I learned for my Christmas card, above


New Dragonfly Collage

 This was another of my Dragonfly series.  Made mostly with my handmade and altered papers with the dragonfly transfers.  Yes, I love greens!

Stamptastic Tiny Workshop with the Chicago Calligraphy Collective

 This photo is of my samples.  The stamps are made of fun foam with adhesive backing- the kind you find for kids!  In one I added pen and ink lines to adhance the card.
 Some of the student's work.  The creative part is what you do with the stamps you create and these were beautiful!  They repeated the stamp with different colors and arranged them on cards.




This one uses the left over scraps and she printed with separate colors to make a spectacular card!

Tiny Workshops with the Chicago Callig Collective


I took the jewelry making workshop- the second photo is the "homework" we had to bring for the pages of the necklace we made.  What a fun class!! And it was really easy to make!

Pen and Ink

 Still working on these- top one is my garden gate in pen and ink and the second is at another garden with watercolor added and the pen and ink is very light.
