June 2012 in Las Vegas

We went to a conference in Vegas and got to visit with Phil and his family. I was so grateful for the lunch we did together.  I found a really old Scrabble Jr game at a yard sale. I photographed the playing board and scanned the tiles and made this layout with some of the parts. Cool, huh!

Seattle

We loved our trip to Seattle this spring. We didn't even get any rain! It was beautiful!!

I uses a kit by Irene from Scrap Orchard with some extractions of my own. I was really pleased with the results!

One Step Away...

Don't you wish sometimes that you could see the future just enough to know that you only had a few more steps towards the success of the DREAM!

Pedro's Ride

I have decided to try some art journaling. My cat decided to check out a delivery truck that was parked next door just befor it decided to leave. Mr P went for the ride of his life. The drivers made a few phone calls and brought him back the next day safe and sound!

River the Angel?

River is not always the little angel she seems in this picture. As a matter of fact, she usually not an angel but a mischievous little girl. So it is really great to catch her like this. This was a fun way to capture this moment.

Chloe

This is my oldest granddaughter, Chloe.  She is autistic and really loves the BLING. The last time my husband and I went to visit I took this photo of her.  I loved this layout as it seems to capture her spirit. This is also my first try in creating a mask. I wanted a sunburst behind her and I did not have a template of one. So I experimented! I really enjoyed this creative experience!

Paul Klee did some abstract city scapes that inspired this art class I organized for children.  In this class we used tissue paper, puff fabric paints and posterboard.  The kids had a great time and there were some really fun results!
