Weaving and Bobbin

- It's not just about the cards
- Global warming

Well I like the fact that I'm branching out C-creatively. I recall hearing stories from friends that their moms were crafters. (This I'm talking the late 70s early 80s) Always doing the newest fad... from macrame hanging plant holders, to interior decorating, from tie dying to cross stitch on a pillow case or 'hanky'. Not so much into the cross stitch stuff, working on my knitting (just a simple fiber filled scarf, one basic stitch) I do have a certificate in Floral Design from MATC (Milwaukee Area Technical College) which means I completed a 12 week class... back in 1991!!! And I took a 4 week session at UW-Parkside in photography.... I think that was 1992!!!! Sewing curtains and costumes was fun! I've taken numerous classes on basket weaving, loved that! Gone to shops to make my own painted ceramic pieces, plates and mugs. Then I was invited to a SU! workshop and I fell in love with the instant gratification of completing something so beautiful and fun, in just moments! Paper crafts... I haven't even touched the surface on the endless possibilities! Thank you for letting me share all my doodles and characters, and 3D pop ups, and glitter and buttons and folds.... I-infinite!

I'm having fun with my 365 Photo Project. Here is my last 'photo shoot' trying to incorporate my funky junk and cards.... find the right lighting or a way to display things. Some of my blog friends really have it going on when taking their pictures. I'm working on editing... but then would you like to know how long I'd be in front of this dangnabit computer???? Good thing I'm not working... outside the home. I am however, a Personality Developmental Specialist!!! And I am very fortunate and blessed!!

Sad shout out to my fur babies... my computer thermometer reads -15.... another day just looking outside, but staying warm inside. At least the sun is shining today, blue skies.... such a tease!
