Tags, Tags and more tags...

I have been making tags ever since I watched a new Group I'm in called Crafting Mamas.  Shelly does a live show.  I was painting my papers and then got bored with that and Watched another YouTube GuRU,
I started making these tags after seeing a YouTube video Scrap your stash.  I think that was the name of it.  I used my scrapbook paper recycled paper from the junk mail and this I got from a group called Crafting Mama's.  Shelly does a live show and wonderful work.  I so enjoy watching on Tuesdays and Fridays 6pm PNW time.  She is funny and everyone chatting is real fun too.  Check her out.

April 21 - May 19 Hmm a month of blogging. :D

Ok - Since its finally time to blog again.  I'm so sorry.  I have been teaching, going to church cleaning and doing art.  This first picture is of a cage I want to sell.  It's a flight cage for small birds  $65.00, and it also comes with two other cages that are perfect for fun in the sun and going to the vet.  and all the toys and ropes and bedding and ladders.

Ok, back to art.  I did these gem of bunnies before easter. Aren't they sweet. You can fill the box or basket with treats.







Every year I make myself a new journal, so this is this years.  so colorful and bright.



I have been making books an this is some signatures, i.e. a grouping of papers folded over the make pages in a book. :D

These are some markers for the garden for my friend Liz in NY.  Well, her husband.   I'm sending them in a package.

Me and my honey, Dan.

I tried my hand at drawing a face and I think it turned out well.  Accept, I should learn to wash my hands before touching my work.... lol

We had a storm a few weeks ago and this is some of the cloud formations, this either looks like ocean waves or a Big meat eater bird coming out of the sky to get a baby dinosaur.


This one looks like a dragon.

Dan in his Easter hat.  Count he look cute.  All he needs is his white gloves.


Dan Playing with Sienna, his Grand-daughter.



These are backwards.  My Valentine's gifts.

WOW! LOTS OF THINGS HAPPENING!  Ok I'll stop yelling, but I'm so excited.  January was filled with Art every day.  Maybe I should be posting it every day, but I haven't figured out how to do it from my IPAD.  Argh!! I'll get there soon.


I'm going to be teaching 3-D Art for Metropolitan Parks of Tacoma Starting 2/6/17  Woo Hoo!!  This is a canvas I did to show them a different type  of 3D Art.
We are starting off with Paper Mache, but this could be a future project. 


 On this project I won some ColorArte products.  and I was practicing with them.   At the Tope of the picture you can see a toll white bottle with Solution on it.  That is an acrylic solution and the little jars in from there is a yellow and green you can see clearly at the top or (gold) Those are powders you can use with water.  There is a video down below.





 
***Video*** down below.   Check it out it tells you more about the different colors.  I apologize if my video is kind of shake or strange.  This is my first try at a video and I wasn't sure how to correct it.  Here goes.  I hope you enjoy.


Finished results below.
