House at Frog Hollow: "Fearless"
http://honstuff.blogspot.com/2013/01/fearless.html
Thursday, January 3, 2013. So here we go with another new year. Remember when you were a kid and the year 2000 seemed like a space odyssey? Should I feel old? Nawyou're as young as ya feel, right? Ok, maybe that's not a good analogy. haha! I just recently took on a challenge from the wonderfully talented mixed media artist, Kelly Hoernig. Maybe this year will be your best ever without any BUMPS in the road! You can do it and you are on the right road to be fearless. January 6, 2013 at 1:31 PM. Picture Wi...

Sunday, September 19, 2010. Last summer, before I got sick, I paid for 2 online classes in mixed media. I started one and never even got to the other. Since then, the website has shut down and has opened up into something new. Those 2 classes lost forever. This is what I started in the first class and have NO idea what I was supposed to do with the rest of it! Lol It's been sitting in a closet just waiting for me to attack it. Links to this post. Lacelace.and more lace! I wonder what my first project wil...

Monday, January 7, 2013. Such a SWEET face! However, the tag was laying up against her rabies tag (which was a little worn) so I couldn't see if there was an owners name and phone number on the other side of her name tag. I just had to be patient. Luckily we were having a warm spell, so the nights weren't too cold, but I still lost sleep worrying about her out there and wondering if she'd still be there in the morning. Well, she was. I guess she like that food! Yep, right on my nose! I still get choked u...

Thursday, January 24, 2013. I am so behind on my journal pages. I should have about 20 pages started and I just completed page 3.yikes! I do have a very good excuse, though. I took a left turn, a delightful left turn, and embarked on a jewelry soldering workshop from the super talented Cat Kerr. But that's a future post. I recently discovered Plaster Craft mesh and wanted to make a couple of hearts with it and I did. While doing so, these wings just kind of evolved. Free form wings with some old lace!

Saturday, January 28, 2012. 30 Day Challenge of Things I Love.Day 3. These two little kittens warm my heart every time I look at them. This is a paint-by-number that my step-daughter, Tori, painted when she was 8 years old. It was a gift for Grandma, my mother-in-law. I loved to paint- by- number when I was a little kid. I mean.who didn't, right? OK, back to the future, Nan! I'm such a lucky duck! Links to this post. Friday, January 27, 2012. 30 Day Challenge of Things I LOVE.Day 2. While convalescencing...

Sunday, August 15, 2010. It has been slow, so I thought, good, I won't be bothered much.WRONG.sooooooooo wrong! I was slammed (thank you #13).I should have known. Now, when I cook or bake, I do my best to kind of clean up as I go along.really, I do. Not this day. I was on a deadline, had faxes coming in, paperwork to deal with and this huge cake to figure out. Needless to say, powdered sugar was flying all over the kitchen! And bake 3 pans at one time. That made me so nervous. Links to this post. This is...

Tuesday, February 15, 2011. I've never been a big fan of Valentine's Day. I think it goes back to high school when, if I had a boyfriend, I got dumped right before the big day. Now that I think about it, it wasn't just V-Day, but every other holiday along the way! I always thought it was pretty crappy for a guy to do that and quickly realized it was because he was a cheap * *! I envied the girls who had flowers delivered to them at school or walked around with heart shaped chocolate boxes. Some sugar cry...

Friday, November 2, 2012. Over the past several months, I've been experimenting with different techniques for mixed media collage. I wanted to add a lot of texture with a lot of different mediums. Here's the end results. I drew her face on vintage French book paper. My goal was to draw a decent face! My daughter was the inspiration for this next one. She has a very crazy stressful job! In an Attempt to Balance her Life, She lost her Head! I drew her face on vintage ledger paper. Messy, but Fun! Easter Bo...
