Buttonmania!

This weekend I discovered how fun it was to work with buttons! I am in a May basket swap and my trading partner likes buttons, so after some internet searching I sat down to create a button bouquet and some button flower embellishments, shown here. It was great fun, and I'm looking forward to putting these in Catherine's basket.

Here is the wonderful Triptych that Leslie Anderson created for me. I am amazed by the creative talent of the ladies at Paper Whimsy!

I find the Paper Whimsy artist group a great place to find inspiration. This is the piece I made for the Triptych swap. I sent this piece to Sally Rodman. You can find Gale's collage sheets at www.paperwhimsy.com.

I had so much fun making this butterfly banner. It is made with chipboard, the Cuttlebug and glimmer mists.

My Very First Blog Post!

I'm so excited to enter the journey of blogging! I hope this blog will be a record of my creative journey, sharing my latest projects.

I love being a member of the ATC club at Stamping Details. Every month I look forward to getting together with some wonderfully creative women. Last night we worked on Fairy Shoes, which will be the swap for April. Here are two of my Fairy Shoes.
