Doing Art

In my art I find that not only is it one thing but many, maybe most everything in
my life that it encompasses.  Instead of just sitting down at my workbench with some
glue, sticky tape, pictures, pens and papers it involves what I see
around me, what's going on, searching my favorite thrift shop for bits and
pieces and being on the lookout for graphics of all kinds.
Above is a card that I found in Billings and I also found some other wonderful die-cut card stock graphics. 
It's fun just going through everything deciding what I want for the place I want it. 
It keeps life interesting!

Hey Diane! It's always so wonderful to see your journaling and art work. I need to commit to working on crafty stuff for a specific timeframe every day. Otherwise, it gets put to the wayside. Hope you have a fantastic weekend. :) Tammy

It's so important to have the inspiration in your studio when you're in a mood to be creative. That little card is so sweet!

I so relate with this post Diane!! It's like you can never see anything without thinking of how great it would work in a project. I do the same with embroidery, whenever I see something that I could make into a pattern. Isn't it fun!?
