Sweet
The woman is by Xquisart and the birds, as if
everyone doesn't already know,

The background was a fit of Gelli plate madness.

This is partly (the bottom) done by the community children.
For the life of my, I don't know what the jars are full of;
Peaches?  Pickled Eggs?
Do you have any ideas?
I will make a mental note to ask next time I am in that town.

The theme this week at
HOME
I am anticipating most of the artists will
create something lovely, full of heart and hearth
and good feelings.
I however, did a self-portrait of my home.
It IS lovely and full of heart and hearth
(if you include my fireplace)
and good, in fact, great feelings.
but it is kind of full.
:-)
Do you have any idea how long this puppy 
took me to put together?!?!?

Here are the credits:

Itkupilli, Durin Eberhart, J. Kneipp, Valentina Creations,

I believe I can Fly!

is the current challenge over at the wonderful
and so of course,
I had to Try It.
I used a journal page I did using some Gecko Galz digital stamps and images,
and put it on a Tim Holtz canvas.
Added a butterfly on the canvas with some Dreamweaver Embossing paste. 
I don't remember the maker of the butterfly stencil, sorry. 
A little bit of colour with some purple Starburst
glimmer spray by Lindy's StampGang.
Some flowers, butterflies and bling from my stash
finished it off.

Love the inspiration I get at 

You should check it out.
It's AWESOME!

Thanks for visiting me today.

Shhh, let's Get Wordless!

Gecko Galz Get Busy!

It's almost July (gasp) and
I am just now showing you my Gecko Galz 
samples for the month of June!

But that's OK, there has been a whole month of gorgeousness
to inspire you!

The theme this month
(as you can see on my sidebar) is
Man O Man.

My first sample fits the theme because the rabbit
trapped in the timepiece is saying 
"Man O Man, Get Me Out Of Here!"


The fit of the second is evident, I believe.

 And for this one, I used a
digital stamp of the hourse, from the Gentlemen's Club Digital Stamp Set.



For this next one, I used paper from the Gyspy Market Collection.
I cropped the woman from the Stay Young and Beautiful Collage Sheet
Then, I erased what I did not want on her.
I added a little wordart by Meaghan;s Creations, and placed the 
whole kit and kaboodle over top of an unknown blue paper
from my stash.
I finished it off with a little brush work, both with paint and with glitter.  
She strikes me as a woman who would like a little glitter.


All of the products I used in these can be found at the
and there is a free gift this month with each purchase!


You know, I'm sure that you get a free digistamp from each
DT member's blog, don't you?
Here is mine-just right click on it and save to your computer.
 Here is what I made with it to get you started.
Digistamps can be printed out and coloured, or
use them digitally with your photo-editing program and
colour them in on the computer as you watch
Downton Abbey reruns on the tellie.

In my sample I did it digitally with a brush.

You still have time to enter the 
Man O Man Customer /Challenge
I hope you do,

And thanks for coming by!

If I haven't been by your blog, please forgive me,
I was miles up north celebrating my daughter's convocation from university.
Woo Hoo!  She's awesome.
Two little kids under 4 years old, husband away working in the coal mine,
She lost her father and sister, 
and she still graduated. 
I couldn't be prouder!

But they have gone home now, and I found time to sit down and make this for
