Here’s a little update of what I’ve been doing…
Creating!
YEP! I have been so inspired… so motivated… so excited to just… Create!

Let’s see…
I have been creating mixed media art (that includes rusting metal… so fun), thrifting (just had to throw that in), creating a journal, and sewing!
YES… sewing!
Rather… trying to learn how to sew!
****I’m also in the process of creating my spring mantel and working on a very creative project with a very sentimental birdhouse (this one may take awhile… if I can even do it!)****
And as this creative force hit me @ a week ago or so… the Lord led me to share this journey with my creative friend Kolein…
She is now my creative sounding board accountability partner… and I hope I’m a good one for her!
AND then…
and then, and then…
the Lord led us to this…
Jeanne Oliver e-courses!
WOW!
These classes have so enriched both of our lives…and we’ve only just started! We so needed these… didn’t we Kol??

OK….
Last time I shared with you my first e-vuh mixed media art project…
WELLLLLLLLL…
I went back and changed the coloring on it…brightened it up a bit…
before and after…
This time…I think I will let it sit on the easel for awhile just to make sure I’m done.
Now… onto journaling…
Here’s a journal I made… an art and writing journal…
it was so much fun to create my own.
(I accidentally glued the back inside cover… upside down! Oops!)
As I ventured into learning how to use a sewing machine… I decided to see what it would do with paper… and that is when I began to sew pages together and watch tons of videos on bookbinding… tons out there online… so if you want to try it… just google it… it’s pretty simple… just takes time.
Can’t wait to start writing and cutting and pasting!!
SO… as Spring approaches…

Hope this inspires you to get out those paint brushes, get out that glue and paper, get out that needle and thread, get out that hammer and those power tools…
and
Just Create!!
