Loved



I don’t think I ever posted this one. It fits this week’s Have More Fun
challenge so I thought I might as well.

Pave Your Way



This is also for Have More Fun. The challenge was to use a transparency
and no cardstock. Hard to take photos of pages that are see through. A
few more shots:



You are Radiant



This is for the Have More Fun class. The challenge was to use something
lying around that’s not typically what you use. I used a canvas paper
from my pad and painted my own background. Can’t say I love it but it
was fun. I told myself I would let myself have fun with this class and
see where it takes me. I am really happy with how much fun I am having
so far.

All About Faces Class Progress



It’s beginning to look more and more like a face. Still so sub-par I
know but I am loving learning this.

David’s been stamping a lot lately. These 7gypsies stamps come in very
handy since they mean no messing with ink pads.

We bought a big boy bed today!

Mousse au Chocolat

Friday’s prompt from Shimelle is: What was your favourite treat as a
child? What is it now? Share the story behind your favourite treats
(be they sweets or luxuries) with your readers to see if
they share your tastes.

Well when I first read this, I thought of bubble baths. I used to take
these bubble baths where I had music playing, a bowl of fruit floating,
and a fantastic book. I loved them. The second time I read it, I
immediately thought of chocolate. My grandmother makes this amazing
Chocolate Mousse. It’s mouth watering. Even now, when I visit home, it’s
the first thing she makes for me.



I don’t have either today but I am still addicted to chocolate.
Especially Lindt Lindor. It’s the very very best!

Thankful Today – July 25, 2008

Techniques

Thursday’s prompt from Shimelle is: What artistic technique do you
love but not use often? What artistic technique intimidates you? Maybe
you’ll find an expert in that technique reads your blog and can comment
with tips for you!

A great question as always. There are too many for me. Sewing. Vintage.
Painting. I would love to do any of these. They all intimidate me.
Especially the drawing. I so wish I could draw and paint better. I’ve
also always wanted to make a quilt.
