Natural Light, Mason Jars and Trims::


Clearing the sea shell theme and making some room for Fall around my home. I love all the natural light shinning through the windows. I used mason jars I had on hand and just added some vintage trims. The glue gun comes in handy if you like your look otherwise, twist or tie to secure. You can mix and match, add and subtract. Have fun that's what it's all about. Working on this project for Stampington.. let's see how far I get. Or, how carried away.. ;)





                                                    Have a fun week everyone,
                                                                       xxx Liz

All That Glitters::

                             
                          All that glitters is Gold... Well not to me. My Mom sends me pine cones every year from Florida. So, this year I'm sending them back all covered in Gold glitter.I couldn't help but, glitter some for myself also in Silver.
                                   Silver and Gold

                           What is your preference?
          The weekend goes all to fast. Doesn't it?
 While the boys will be boys. My Daughter and I are meeting for brunch and maybe do some Xmas shopping. I'm almost finished. I think!
I'll be back with my Saturday thrift shop finds and a Giveaway you'll love. Hint, hint.....
               Where Women Create.
               Have a relaxing Sunday ;)

Bonjour ::


                               Bonjour `a Tous!   Ici, il est. Hello everyone! Here it is," Le Petit Journal." The little journal. Yes, I've been journal crazy.It's been a long, cold winter. A girl has to do something. I'm not much of a TV person. So, crafting fits right in.I'm on the hunt right now for a  good glue for paper. I've tried so many over the years and always go back to a permanent glue stick. While, double sided tape is OK, it's not my fave. Please share your favorite glue! I'm on the hunt again....Thanks everyone.
                                                                                                       Hugs,
                                                                                                       Liz

Altered Postcard ::



Vintage Stamp Set
                                So, many possibilities when using stamp sets. I purchased this set years ago from a antique  dealer. I paid $ 25.00 for the complete set.Back then, I thought I over paid for it. But, it's worth every penny. It even came with ink and a ruler. Yes, I collect Vintage postcards too. I thought this morning I would alter one as an experiment. Cool, another fun way to use my stamps. I even color copied it on my copier to use journaling. Fantastic, give it a try! It was a hard parting with a great Vintage post card. I eventually caved in, after I went through my assortment of cards. I am happy with the outcome.Have a great weekend. Stay warm.
                                                                                
         Hugs,
