I thought I'd lay out all the collages I've done in the past 4 months! Most of them were created in response to the challenges on blogs and at groups. As you can see, I have had so much fun. Images from paperwhimsy,artchix, divasdeste,enchanted mercantile, and those images posted on the blogs to use!

Wonderful Cause!!!!!!!

Run for Her, fundraiser for Ovarian Cancer, 2006 in Los Angeles, Ca

I was fortunate to be able to participate in the project "Ties That Bind". I made 2 charms to be part of this amazing collaborative doll to raise money for Ovarian Cancer Research.

My dear friend, Cathy, died 2 years ago of ovarian cancer. 

I miss her.

Thanks for all of you who have helped me celebrate my 500th post by commenting!!!

When I started my blog I said to myself that I was going to post everyday, just something! I was good for a while then slacked off and then restarted posting. It is like most of my projects. I start out with such enthusiasm and sl-----o----w---ly  wane in my enthusiasm. I said to myself, for once I was going to try and follow through! My blog has become for me a chance to show my art, share my family, celebrate the art of other artists, promote the sites of the wonderful businesses that supply me with my images I love to play with, and generally, to stay in touch my my friends through art. Thanks again for making me want to continue blogging along!!!

You know those paper napkins you have?

There is a tag swap over at paperwhimsy  and we are exchanging tags made from paper napkins. We are also sending a dozen napkins along with the tag. Sounds silly maybe, but fun to do!!!
