They are back!





I can't believe it's already fall again! It seems just yesterday that I went out to walk the back yard and saw some morning glories in all their glory! Well, it's happening again. They are back, and this time I found some that were accessible to my camera. I went back inside, charged the camera and took some great pictures. I just LOVE the blue color of the morning glory. It's like Heavenly blue with a core of pure light. Aren't they just fantastic?
I've also been busy here in blogland and in my studio. Here's another winged box, and I'm really happy with the outcome of this puppy! You never know, but that's what makes art interesting. Every project is an unchartered path even though the path is familiar.

Something new in my shop for your prayers or trinkets!





I like to write down intentions and put them somewhere. I have my own little box, well, it's not so small, and I keep all my wishes in it. I date the pieces of paper, and later on when I go through my wishes/prayers/intentions, I find that most of them have been answered. Of course there's a Big Ear in the sky that hears everything, and not clamped to a cell phone either! My prayers might not be answered in the way I envisioned, but they are always answered. I'm very grateful that someone wants to listen to me! This box can be purchased at Artfire here and it's quite reasonably priced, and of course made with love. :)

Art journal from old book covers...









I belong to On The Wing creative network, and we make projects to get ourselves to experiment creatively. This week we made an art journal that is inspired by Kelly Rae Robert's book Taking Flight. I have never made an altered book, but here's my addition to that online "challenge."

More mirrors...



Got myself into some more polymer clay tiles; it's addictive you know. These I like because they came out very colorful. You never know; it all depends on the mood you're in. I have some old tiles that are ugly and I always wonder what I was thinking when I made those... They don't make themselves into any of my creations, and I always say I'm going to repaint them, but there they are, slightly dog-eared and scuffed...

Here are PEACE and FOLLOW YOUR DREAM! I like those messages a lot. For those who pop in here know that... :)
