8.12.11 FWF

Welcome to my blog on this
happy FWF Friday!
Today is a pretty special day.....
29 years ago
our first child was born!
Happy Birthday, Becky!

You can
find the links to everyone
playing along with
Unity's Friends With Flair
on the Unity blog HERE.

I'm sharing the opening pages 
of my Art Journal.
A little mixed media fun:


I used 10 different stamp sets.
and 8 different KOM sets:
fresh beginnings 4/09
another sweet day 5/09
perfect in every way 6/09
pocket full of.... 7/09
go ahead...WISH  9/09
wherever you go 10/09
delightful moments 12/09
Savor the journey 1/10
I used gesso & Plaid paints,
Memories & Memento black
& ColorBox violet inks,
Tim Holtz tissue tape
ModPodge
MME Penny Lane Leaves of Love dp

I also made a fridge magnet
for an altered item challenge
over at Crafting By Designs.
Started out with this magnet
that came in the mail:

And ended up with this:



The stamps on this project are from
{ippity}'s Devoted set. 
I covered the magnet with vinyl
left over from a Wall Words
project I made on my
 Silhouette.  I will
share pictures of that
after my DD gets it up
in her office.

Thanks for stopping by and
Have a great weekend!!
