Sunshine!

I woke up this morning thinking it was much later than it was, since the sun was shining!  It's a beautiful fall day!  I took this picture around 7:30 a.m.  I love seeing the clouds hanging in the trees with the mountains in the background.  Who wouldn't love to be up here viewing this every morning?

Rain, rain go away!



It has been raining here in Western North Carolina for almost two weeks, off and on, and now continuously for two days.  See the rain in the first picture?  Every time I think it is going to let up it starts pouring again!  In the picture of the front lawn and Christmas trees, you can see the fog - sometimes it is so thick I can't even see the Christmas trees.  The poor dogs are going stir crazy and Cody will hardly go out to pee!

Pumpkin Kid!


Today I worked on a swap I joined at a site called Art42.  You were to make a pumpkin kid ATC.  I found the sparkly foam pumpkins at Michael's and I had a collage sheet of vintage kids.  I thought she came out very cute!

Handmade Book


I made this book at Keeton's at a class with Joey Long. We used a dremel to drill the holes in the spine and sewed the book together. It was very informative and fun, but I'm not sure I could do it again without Joey!

Red Lead Swap


I joined the latest swap at Red Lead Paperworks, which is entitled "Which Red Lead Image are YOU?" You have to use a Red Lead collage sheet or rubber stamp and add your childhood picture to the image. I decided to be a butterfly girl!
