Wow it has been a long time since I blogged.  I have been sick with that flu bug whew that was the worst.  But lately I have been creating.  I had an open house at Michaels last Saturday.  and Christmas and all that - right..

So here are some things I have been creating.
Well, this is a creation by my new daughter.  I have a new grand baby Sienna Rose, born 6/19/14.

This is my new bird of 2014 her name is Tinkerbell, she really does think around with her bells.

 Creating Christmas cards.
 My friend Linda Monopoli gave me this tiny journal to play with and I created a tiny tiny Journal.

Then after things pick up, they will let me teach adults.  So get your kids into Michaels on 38th for some Acrylic Art painting classes.  And guess what, I will clean up the mess.   The student Kit is $49.99, And you can use a Michael's coupon towards it.  And, the class registration fee changes to $15.  You can sign up at Michaels.com.  I love kids so get them in there!!

Ok I received my Mystery box! Two Krylon shortcut craft paints Red Pepper Red and Turquoise Blue, a wooden box, two cloth napkins, some wooden buttons, and some burlap.  I was asked to create with my imagination. Here's my creation:

This is a file box for my mini scrapbooks.  I love the ocean so I painted calming waves.

Taking the Red paint I painted the buttons, I used the napkin to make the white button flower on the front and back, and the burlap to make a flower.  I added a little burlap to the front.  I created the wave affect by using wavey tape and painted waves blue.  Turned out perfect!! :D #Krylon, #Shortcuts, #Walnut Hollow

Went to a bazaar this weekend to sell my paintings, but none sold.  A little boy was interested in one but thought it was .25 cents not $25... lol oh well.  Hope everyone is getting their shopping started for Christmas.

This past weekend I wanted to paint so I did.

This was created from a Picture I took of flowers in my front yard.. Crocuses that come up every September.  The picture I printed was in poor quality so I didn't get the same colors... but That's art.  right.  I did pretty good though, I think.  I might pic at it one more... maybe.
