Art Journal Every Day – Keep an Art Journal

I am participating with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer’s Art Journal Every Day. The idea is to get you to do at least 10 minutes of art every day. Of course once I get started I generally keep going. At my house winter brings earlier dinners and long, long evenings. Yes, yes I know it’s been this [...]

Organization Week with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer – Display My Art

When I got home from my three-day weekend and got the laundry done I rushed over to read Day 5, 6 and 7 of Organization Week. I found that I had done most of the steps in the process of Day 1-4! I will qualify that statement with the fact that I had read Nat’s [...]

Organization Week with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer – Keep an Art Journal

Fabric Paper and Eucalyptus Paper Collage – Make an Art Journal

I’ve been making fabric-paper or stitch-paper over the past weeks using decorative napkins acquired in an online napkin swap.

Is It Done Yet? More Thinking Outside the Book…

You saw the beginnings of this page in the previous post (at the very end). My question is, “Is it done yet? or am I just in the middle? Maybe I could add more of the ribbon across the top. Or more text, maybe white on the darker patches of purple. Did I leave too [...]

Think Outside the Book – samantha kira harding

The July/August issue of Cloth Paper Scissors, one of my favorite magazines, had an article by Samantha Kira Harding. It was titled Think Outside the Book. I loved the idea, the only problem? I’m not much for sewing.  In school, when starting 7th grade all the girls were required to take Home-Ec  so I know [...]
