"Gift From The Sea" by Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Here are my Journal pages for a Prompt over at Roses On My Table. My Favorite book was the theme and I chose "Gift From The Sea" by Anne Morrow Lindbergh, one of my favorite writers. A wonderful thought inspiring book for women of all ages.

"Once Upon A Time"

I just finished a Journal page for a Prompt over at Roses in our Journal Journey.
 For Inspiration I used a Cookie Jar and after creating a likeness of the Cookie jar I took it a step further, always trying something new,  I'm now more than ever... obsessed with creating faces. I don't have much drawing experience at all as I did "Major in Motherhood" don't you know.........
Always some thing new to learn but I'm making progress not perfection and not afraid to put myself out there you will see the good, bad and the ugly, lol after all to everyone else in my life I'm just Grammie...
I titled Her   "Once Upon A time"     From This To That, Here and There and Everywhere That's me

Finished Under the Wire

Yay, I finished my February CQ 2015 block for the Crazy Quilting Journal Project 2015:)  I actually had it finished a few days ago but hadn't taken the time to take a pic, so here it is with  my Mucha print on fabric and now I'm caught up with my blocks!
Meanwhile I have been working on some more Journaling pages and will share those later in the coming week as many are still WIPs.
I would like to give my friend Janet at Janet's Art Play  a big shout out for sending me some much needed colors towards this years project of my Mucha CQ project. I hope you can visit her blog as she is a very talented artist and good friend of mine.
Thanks again Janet and much love:)XOXO

Art Journaling and Doing What You Love

Before I begin anymore projects I thought I would share with you my latest page in one of my Art Journals:)  I have been working on Faces and jump around in what I love to do, ummm..  like sketch, paint, put together mixed media projects, crazy quilt blocks, book making and journaling. Faces is my latest favorite so I'll continue to play and hopefully improve.
I just finished my 2nd block for my Mucha CQ project and now I will be getting back to my journals, playing catch up you could say and will share that block later in the week.
Have a great creative week all!

Playing Catch Up Again

I just wanted to share my 1st CQ block for for 2015 for the CQ 2015 Journal Project, and I'm running a bit behind, ha.. as usual and hope to work on and finish my 2nd block before months end.  I plan on using these blocks in a Fabric journal or as a Fabric journal cover as in the case of this one.  This has a Mucha print that has been printed onto fabric and then appliqued on. Once attached to a larger piece of Fabric I think it will come together nicely. I have changed things on it a zillion times trying to find just the right embellishments, I find I haven't enough supplies in these colors, must go hunting before long if I'm completing 11 more:)
Meanwhile Im working in 4 to 5 Art Journals, 4 at the moment for various projects and as usual have too many irons in the fire. At least I don't get bored and will need 3-4 lifetimes to finish them all. Hope all is well in your neck of the woods:) Happy Creating!
