A Life time ago...

Although, I love these paper piecings and enjoyed doing them all those years ago, my style and the way I scrapbook has very much changed. Now I love the flowers, pearls, patterns and lace just to name a few... I just can't put them away, its a memory of where I was...


I made this aprox 5 years ago for my DS bedroom door. Although, he still loves the famous Harry Potter this piece has been replaced for the sake of his little friends visiting....he is 9, and afraid of teasing...

Tinkerbelle, again made 9 years ago. It was once a young girls favorite character...














Winnie the Pooh, made 9 years ago...

Half Way There...

Wow, what a day!! It was my first day back after the holidays and was it hetic... Maybe going back on a Friday was not such a good idea, thought it was at the time, thought I could ease the pain of the Monday morning blues. None the less, it is Friday and the weekend is here yet again. Well, I started to clean up my huge mess and I am happy to say I am half way there, I am just hoping I will be able to find everything when it' put in its proper place, oh my! I think I use those words on my kids, what was I thinking? I came across a few surprize, pieces I totally forgot about and had done about 9 years ago. I did paper piercings of Winnie the Pooh, Harry Potter and Tinker Bell. Don't know why I never used them they are quite nice looking, well maybe there a little big? or for a wall maybe? I will take some picks and post them for fun. I am certainly enjoying going through all my stuff, its amazing what you can find when your not looking. Well as always its been a pleasure, must sign off and see if I can get in a few more minutes of cleaning before I curl up for the evening. But before I go, I know how to post on my own blog but tried to post on others to thank them for their comments and for some unknown reason I can't seem to figure it out....does anyone out there have any suggestions? Have a wonderful evening, and thanks for popping by.

My Floral Vine...


Out of my mess I managed to put together a floral vine. I followed a tutoral on the below link....




Gabrielle Pollacco has some great tutorials on her blog, they are easy to follow and her work is just beautiful. My vines certainly did not turn out to be like hers but not bad for my first one. Be sure to check out her blog, lots of wonderful ideas and inspiration....




Well here it is, my pretty mess.....








Those are not turtles really!!! I have stuff in that box....lol
