‘The world and its desires pass away,

But the man who does the will of God

Lives forever!’

May God’s words be honey to your mouth today,

Jessica and I enjoyed making card samples to show at CHA.  Here is one that I made from coffee filters. A quick and easy project with a unique look…

The coffee filter is colored with Tsukineko’s Walnut Ink spray in Lilac and Cherry Blossom.

The edges are cut with pinking shears. The smaller pocket is cut from a 2nd coffee filter & then glued on top of the first one. Stamps used in this fun project are Flutterescent, Garden Borders, Merci Bouquet & Beaded Frames.

May God richly bless your day with layers of color,

I’m joyful to announce that I’ve been published as a Guest Artist in the book, “Exploring the Latest Trends in Mixed Media Art, Volumne II Recycled, Reinspired Reinvented By Sherre Hulbert and Cynthia Powell, and Guest Artists”!  I started this project October 2008, that’s how long it takes to get published in a book! But it was worth the wait!

Back Cover

I created Decorative Rulers from recycled cereal boxes for my project contribution in the “Recycled” section of the book. The rulers are shown on the back cover and page 66. Sherre and Cynthia did the book layout, page decoration, and the tremendous amount of work to get this second book in print. Congratulations, Ladies!
