    I will be away, so I am sending you wishes for a Happy Mother's Day.  Hope you have a grand day, and wonderful weekend.

    Look at this enthusiasm.  The roses are all eagerly growing straight up toward the sun.  We now have twenty bushes – and countless, literally cannot count them, buds about ready to show off.  Check out the evidence on this one.  Can't wait to get back after the weekend to see them.

    New crusade is posted.  Come play!  (The Roman Numeral for 40 is XL, get it?)

    Oh, where am I going?  You mean you haven't been keeping track, counting the minutes like me?

    I will have a small collection of new stamps up for pre-order next week.  I can't wait for you to see these!  I'm just finalizing a few sizes to match up with some paper punches.  Sneak peek in the top graphic.

    Again, Happy Mother's Day ~ especially to my cute little mom with the big heart.  xoxo

    Often I will work in multiple journals.  Love to try on another size using the same tools and materials just to see if I learn any new lessons in composition.  I recently started working in this mini moleskine (found at Borders).  My RubyTuesday journal is almost complete so I will transition to this little one in the same theme, and will tuck it in to the larger one somehow.

    The above is a sneak peek into the next crusade, posting tomorrow.  We are at the 40th!  My mission of spreading creativity and building connections through online challenges has been an utter delight.  How cool to have a gathering of interest from around the globe in our cyber studio!

    So I'm a little late posting this page.  At least I kept up!  I'm also late with the crusade, but it's up now, whew!

    There is nothing better than working with reckless abandon, and no concern for "what am i going to do with this" - just playing to learn.  Hope you'll join us this month.   

    Sam turned 18 yesterday.  Eighteen!  Sweet kiss from his sweet friend :)  Makes my heart sing to see him so happy.

    Lots of comments about my custom *lucky girl* ring.  From etsy of course!  Made by Chris at CreativeMode.  In fact, all the rings are from etsy.  See also aprilkawaoka, pufflunakaralmavaaliciasjoy, cherrycreek,  tinahdee, panicmama, and sterlingstones.  Rock On is from somewhere else…can't remember now.

  • whatta week!

    Before I talk about the week ahead I will say something about the last weekend.  I was super lucky to have an opportunity to teach at the Career Capades day at our kid's high school.  It was an action packed day with many presentations in all kinds of departments.  I was asked to set up for a workshop and chose to go with monoprinting as it is fast, easy, and quick-drying.  With the assistance of some art students we kept the tables turning over so we could let everyone who was interested come have a try at a painting technique.  Some 'customers' whizzed in and out but there were some who stayed and kept at it, making lots of cool painted prints.  LOVE that I got to witness young kids taking an interest in making art.

    There is still time to "Grab a Tissue", then next month we will try monoprinting for the crusades.

    And now this week.  OMG.  Love my him, Him, and HIM. him:  it is our 20th anniversary tomorrow!  I am such a lucky girl to have this man in my life.  What a blessing to exchange vows with him and launch a family together.  Life is good.  Him:  this weekend is Palm Sunday.  The beginning of Holy Week.  I remember learning as a kid that the ashes we get crossed on our forehead at the beginning of Lent is from the burned palms of the year before.  I don't know if that's true but I like the connection.  Mom and Dad will be arriving next week to celebrate Easter with us.  And HIM:  the new video was just released…my favorite track on the album too!  Thursday, Fallon and I go to the signing.  (I am frantically preparing gifts right now!)   Friday, Graham and I go to the opening night of the tour.  We are out of our minds with excitement!  Gah!

    Thank you so much for the loving and caring comments and emails.  You have made me feel connected even though I've been unplugged for a while.  It's been a blurry few weeks and I am feeling so much better.  Thank you, truly.

    My pages from yesterday fall into the *evidence* category.  Lots of messages that came in cards, with gifts, a fruit basket, fresh flower bouquets, and LOTS of ROSES!   How about this message from Lisa…made me grin, and it's so true 😉

    I put in some time on my other blog today too.  Crusade No. 38 is posted.  A super easy and fun way to layer on a page is to use tissue paper….even cooler if it's painted.  Go see, then play along with us.
