Finally a creative weekend!

Hi Everyone,

Well finally I was able to have some fun! I went with the gal pals to a weekend scrapbook convention.
I am not much of a "scrap booker" as such, and usually I take my altered art stuff and maybe make a few art cards or collage book pages over the weekend.

I don't often get much done, but I always enjoy the creative time with the gals, the inspiration, of course the never ending food and treats, and the opportunity to purchase mountains of new supplies that I never have time to use.
Yes I did exercise that opportunity.....

This time was no exception when it came time to getting things done.
I always have plans of grandeur and bring mountains of containers of stuff to work on and supplies enough to last an entire year of conventions.

But this time I didn't haul it all into the convention as I usually do, instead I left it all in the van and brought in only 2 containers of stuff.

I worked on my embellished keys, and had sort of a mini class with my friends and they learned how to make some of these keys for their own art creations.

Below are the few keys that I did get made, 12 in total, and I am very pleased with the results, tho had I been as home I most likely would have made about 100 keys over the 2 days. But it would never compare to the fab time I had with the gal pals.

Thanks Gerdie, Lori, Denise, and Miriel for a fabulous fun weekend!

As well thanks to all of the other scrappers there including Pam, and Marie (over 100) for a ton of inspiration and camaraderie!
Thank-you Sharon and staff for hosting this wonderful event twice per year!


I do have about 50 keys that are painted and ready to assemble so I am hoping to have those done sometime this week.
If you would like to see these close up, I have already listed the keys for sale on my website.

Since I was listing stuff today I also managed to create a new category called filigree metal embellishments and started listing my filigree pieces for sale. These are what I use to make my altered keys.

So if you are interested in creating your own embellished keys here is a tutorial I made several years ago on creating them.

I am waiting for a shipment of new filigree pieces and will be listing them as soon as they arrive.

Have a very creative week!

The box is packed and ready!

Hi Everyone,

Well I guess it's my bad for not getting back to my blog lately. Gee where does time go? Okay so I finally had a day to pack up everything that is for this giveaway. This is the box packed and ready to close up and address to the recipient.

Hmmmm? Do you wonder who its gonna be?

Drumroll please.......tadum tadum tadum.........

The winner is Ann of Ann's Imagination Creations of California USA

Now I like to wait a day or 2 before I contact them just so that if they are happening about in blog land, it is always so fun when they chance upon their win, so let's see if Ann finds it on her own....

But if I dont hear from her in a couple of days I will contact her, then I will give her 7 additional days to get back to me with her mailing info.

So here is the packed box with loads of "vintage scented" doilies as packing material on the top. These are fab when tea stained or walnut stained to add to your art projects.


Tissue papers, milk pogs, clip art bingo cards ephemera, die cuts, vintage postcards....

Brand new rubber stamp set, lg puzzle pieces, vintage slides,paper doiles, hell money, Joss papers, a pkg of fimo cane, airmail envelopes.....

Collage sheets printed on laser paper, assorted images, stamps, labels, bottle cap images................

wooden domino box filled with beads, a metal tin filled with jewelry bits and baubles, a sandwich baggie of beads, game pieces, doo dads and gew gaws (do you know what a gew gaw is?)

Heres an overview of my table top. The stuff you can't see is ribbons, fibres, lace, flowers, some hand made art stuff, and I did list most of what you will find in the description in the original post. Plus I am sure there are tons of things I haven't mentioned.

So I hope Ann can find a use for some of these items in her crafting, I would love to see some creations from this box.

Thank-you to all that participated in this giveaway. I will be starting a new giveaway very soon and there will definitely be a new twist to the giveaway. Muahahahaha!

Happy Creating everyone!

(((hugs)))
