Mother's Day was nice. Being a mom is one of the most amazing thing in the universe. You get to bring new life into existence. Nothing can be more magical than that...except maybe finding a unicorn.

It's been raining for a few days now, although, it seems the sun has come up today. The forecast for the week should be more rain and maybe even sleet on Mother's Day.

My daughter really enjoyed this year's dance competition. She said it went by too quickly. What she missed most was the friendship with her dance group...and the choreographers. The photos below were taken by a professional. I'm beyond proud of the hard work she put into the dances. 🙂

Took one apart to paint in smaller blocks (see previous post for example). Ephemera by Pink Paislee. Stencils by... Continue Reading →
Sorry for the bad quality of photo. There wasn't enough light and I upped the ISO pretty high thus the graininess. This assignment asked for stamped butterflies or similar but I don't have a lot of stamps so I decided to create the butterflies in Photoshop and overlay with digital scrapbooking papers (which I have...

The Color Theory class ended last week but I wasn't able to finish my layouts so I'm working on them this week. I've got two done and one more to go. I haven't had the chance to take photos of the completed ones but here are a few photos of what it looks like when... Continue Reading →
