AEDM Day 13 Afternoon Performance

Coming in a little late tonight...back from Mom and Dad's. Mom took me and the kids to a show at SB Staller Center. The show was for all ages and we all had lots of fun. The kids had a great time as did Mom. So while waiting for the show to start I took out my sketchbook and pen and drew what I saw. Tomorrow I'm going to start on my new journal book that I made yesterday. I'm going to have a think on what I'll do..Good night!

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:)

AEDM DAY 11 ~ Tape and Sticker job

this is what I am working on inside.

The other day I put my white gel pen to my moleskine cover and 1) I wasn't thrilled with what I drew and 2) the gel stuff never truly dries it just stays sticky and leaves white on whatever it touches :( I decided to take some K&Company stamp stickers I have and my washi tape and cover up the white mess! I think it looks cute. I like the image so much I made it a wallpaper on my iPhone! I love that about the phone. I used to have the Android but switched when my plan came due. I jumped at the chance to get an iPhone. I love that it is almost the same as my other favorite, the iPad. Having said that I still like the PC most of all but the other two are fast runners-up!

AEDM Day 10 ~ Jar of Tape

I got this great jar of tape but NEVER use it. It's like the blank canvas syndrome! I like to just look at all the great colors and daydream as to what great craft I can do with them but I never get around to it! Crazy I know... I have some washi tape in there (awesomeness) and the rest is a great crepe-type tape (super colors). I should commit to using that tape during this challenge. I just have to figure out what craft is 'tape-worthy' enough to use it. haha!
