More Art from the Traveling Treasure box



These are three chunky book pages I made last night for Lorna Sommer's Priest River Idaho Animal Shelter Benefit book. I got the images from the traveling treasure box--aren't they adorable? I had lots of fun making these! I hope Lorna makes a ton of money for the shelter--I'll post when it goes up for auction on Ebay.

Traveling Treasure Box Dangly


Belong to a great list of art people on Yahoo called Ephemeral Notions, and yesterday received the Traveling Treasure's box I'd signed up for! It's such a wonderful concept! I gleaned some great stash from the box, and I am to replenish it with treasures from my own stash....and boy, am I having fun finding stuff to put in there! I LOVE giving goodies! It's more fun than getting them, and you know how fun that can be! Anyway, this is a little dangly that I made from a beaded bottle cover I gleaned. Isn't it cute?

I Give Myself A Permission Slip


This is a chunky book page for a book we are doing over on Bad Babies to celebrate 2 years of arting together. It's based on the art style and words of Sark, and my Sark phrase was "Give Yourself a Permission Slip".

Things with my daughter have been stressful lately. I felt, while doing this, that I really was giving myself permission to enjoy my life for a change.....The smaller image is the accompanying tag. The winged man is the front, it folds downt the middle, and the back says "Be Happy".
