last two Art journal pages

These are the third and fourth art journal pages that I have done for the AJ swap on PAO.
The top one has Paris themes tissue paper in the background.


This one was inspired by a page that I saw on Twopeas but can't remember who posted it. I had these canvas birds in my stash and really wanted to try them out. I love the birds!!

2nd art journal ready

Here is the latest Art Journal to mail out in the latest swap. It is inspired by a Donna Downey inspiration journal video.

Altered Gaint puzzle pieces swap

I received the swapped puzzle pieces back from Rachelle today. Below are two of the pieces from Pam C. and Cheryl M.

Below, these are from Julie S. and Cheryl H.

Art Journal page for a swap

This is a art journal page for a PAO swap that I am in. The theme seems a little out in left field but I think it fits the overall theme of the book well. To bad, I can't show you the book to but these pages are a secret until the end.

Playing around with some new techniques

This is something that I created last night, just so that I could try out some new background techniques. I am rather pleased with it. enjoy

Artsy stuff at work

I decided to take some of my favorite pieces to work so that I can enjoy them all day long.


These are the houses that were done in two different PAO swaps last year. I finally found them again and hinged them together. they look so great in my office window. Thanks to Pam Cook, Cheryl H., Honey, Pam P. and Marianne for these wonderful houses.

this is a canvas that I did a couple weeks ago for a challenge. Is is made of the scrap/trash that was laying around on my scrapping desk. I really like it alot too.

This is the altered art doll that was made by Sue and sent to me in a PAO swap also.

My New Baby!!

This is badger, he is our new Miniature Dachshund.

Our house is very exciting now, never a dull moment!

Altered Giant Puzzle Pieces

Springtime Chunky Courage Swap

Another round of Chunky courage swap- each player sends you 5 items and you have to create a 4 X 4 page using all 5 items. You can add items of your own but you have to use their items. These photos aren't that great but what can I say it was a cell phone camera.

Finishing touches on my 2010 art journal

Playing with mist and rubons.

background is swirled paint and glossy accents for rain drops. Poem said: Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass but learning to dance in the rain".

This one is my favorite, a new technique that I learned in a Aj class that I took a few months ago. love it!

again a new technique with misting.

I did this one after watching Donna Downey's video on her blog. Stencils and drippage. Also I used one of the image tags from a recent swap on PAO.
