More Collage ....

I just keep adding and adding.....

Folksie Garland

I made these yesterday. I dyed the paper with coffee and strung them on string. They're attached to a screen door we 'rescued' from my mom and dad's house.

A Christmas Collage

I made this today. I used cardboard box material with cut outs and an old earring.

Making Progress

I'm still working on this collage - I don't think I'll tackle anything this big again.

So far...

Well, there you have it - - - I don't really like it any more. I knew I'd do it...I added too much and it's getting ugly. Why can't I leave it alone???
Okay, I'll be working on it again tomorrow. Maybe if I add waaaaaay too much, it might be okay.

New Collage

Working on a new collage but trying to take it a little slower. Things in it will be changing and hopefully not be ruined in the process.
I've already altered it - adding a paper doll where the 'bird' is. I'll post another photo tomorrow.

What to do Today!

I need inspiration! I feel like creating something - but what?? I need art supplies - canvases, paint, glue, buttons......maybe, I can use 'other' mediums for canvas?? I've got cardboard, old slate shingles...Mike has stuff in the shed. Okay, it's not as bad as it seemed a few seconds ago. I still need good glue. I also need to learn how to make paper mache (sp.?).

I'll begin my next project and post pictures - oh, I need new batteries for my camera.....:)

Fall Collage

Fall Collage - I will be doing one for each season.
I don't know, maybe I should try to sell it ???

TJ's Playhouse

Simon made a playhouse for TJ out of the box my recliner came in. He loves it.
By the way, in small print, the sign above the door says 'no girls allowed'.

Some pictures from the wedding. It's amazing how everything finally falls into place when the big day arrives.

Catherine's Bridal Photos at Nottoway

Engagement Picture

Corey and Catherine in one of their engagement photos. The photographer we used was Roy Pino. He was terrific. It was FREEZING that day and the wind was blowing but he managed to take a few good ones.

Catherine's Engagement Party 1/2010

Trying to catch up and work more on this blog. This picture was taken at Catherine and Corey's engagement party. It was given by Corey's Aunts and Uncles. In this picture are Mike , me, Catherine, Corey, Kelly (Corey's mom), Ted (Corey's dad).
Catherine became engaged to Corey Gill in July of 2009. He surprised her while we were eating out at a local restaurant. It was great!

TJ is Growing!

Well, TJ is getting bigger by the day! He looks more and more like a little boy and not just a baby. Theresa says he's hungry all the time and she's thinking about starting him on a little cereal at night. I believe that I started all of mine on cereal at two months but now everyone says to wait until six months. I don't know about that. Anyway, here a few new pictures of him.
