Glue It Tuesday Jam Jar

That week went fast, boy!

Linking up with Artysville for Glue-It Tuesday once again.
This glue-it is a simple one, but such a favorite subject ;)

 

such sweet goodness

This week I was able to accomplish a good bit, particularly on the weekend. I created a page in my 'long lost' art journal.

I made this art journal almost two years ago and was adding to it slowly. However, it got put in a drawer and forgotten. Now it's 'found' and my goal is to complete the rest of the blank pages.

 

  I was able to complete two felt hearts in hoops which I stitched/embroidered/sequined/beaded. Woohoo! So much fun!

  A nice change up from painting/drawing...a little change is always good for the brain.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your week!

AEDM Day 12 ~ Making Journals.

This is a sketch I did a few weeks back.. this morning I added color:) The other creative activity I did was create this AWESOME journal. I found a post on Elvie Studio's blog about a tutorial by Teesha Moore. A very cool activity, making a journal out of a single sheet of 30x22 watercolor paper:) I can't wait to fill it!
What a beautiful Saturday in NY! Mom, Dad and Eric swung by this afternoon. Mom and I took a trip to Michaels. I was pleasantly surprised at the register. The two circle punches I purchased were on sale 40% off and I had a 25% coupon that could be applied to sale items. All is right with the world. When we returned home we found out Dad had made a few trips to the local stationery store, he won $25 on a scratch off ticket, went back to cash in bought a few more, won $50, repeat, then $25, repeat, then finished off with $5. I think I got that straight, nevertheless Pop is on a winning streak. Boy, was he delighted, it was so much fun. That is his only vice, scratch-offs, haha! go figure. This evening mom helped me put together two journals. I tried to convince her to take one but I think she had more fun just putting it together:)
