Completion of 3 Page Moley Spread for Grrdjules!

I have finally finished Grrdjules 3 panel spread in her traveling Moley. Jules selected "They Draw & Cook" theme based on the actual website at http://www.theydrawandcook.com/ that Nate and Salli created. Absolutely a fun and enjoyable site of recipes and drawings all combined together.

I created my 3 page panel with one of my favorite Soups. My mom's Cheese Soup. This is definately a family recipe and brings up alot of memories about my mom. I hope that Jules will like it. So, drummmm rollll pppleease..teehee


The recipe is on the Moley pages and my three little cooks are securely attached to flip down so that Jules can see the actual recipe! Crazy idea! But it turned out better than I imagined. Leave me a comment or two.
Now, off I go the post office to get Jules moley sent to the next artist!
Have a wonderful Thursday and a Fabulous week! Hugs!

Happy Happy Wednesday To You My Friends! WOYWW

Happy Happy Wednesday To You My Friends! Happy days ahead will come. If I could make a wish for you, I would wish a Happy Happy Day to you!

This is what I have been working on. It's an altered Birdcage. It will be for sale. It is in Paris Theme as two hat boxes are in the center of the birdcage tied with sheer wire black ribbon. I have used pink, white and black flowers to decorate it and have woven lights through out the cage. I have 2 more in the makings and some fun other things that I have also been working on. I don't want to give too much away right now, so you'll have to stay tuned.

Now, for the other stuff that's on my desk this week, isn't as exciting as the Birdcage. Our Taxes. Nothing more exciting then that, right?

Oh! If you would like to particpate in WOYWW and join in on the fun and jump around to other blogs who are also participaiting, hop on over to:
http://www.stamping-ground.blogspot.com/ and join Julia and her 2011 WOYWW adventures.


Well, atleast enjoy the pictures of my birdcage and skip my scattered tax stuff all over my desk!

Stumbled Upon The Most Absolutely Fabulous Blog, EVER!!!

This morning as I was searching through all the "Grimms" Fairy Tale stories, I came upon a Blog that I must share with you.

I don't declare myself to be a top notch avid writer, or avid artist, or avid reader, or avid crafter, and/or singer. But, upon pausing for just what I thought to be just a moment, turned into over 4.5  hours of reading, viewing, admiring, jaw dropping, interesting, intriging, and the most well put-to-gether Blog.

This Blog belongs to Heidi Anne Heiner (found here: http://surlalunefairytales.blogspot.com/ has done incrediable reading, research, writing, explaining anything and everything about Fairy Tales.

I copied a sentence off her Blog, which is absolutely true! Heidi states,"The SurLaLune Blog is the best place to read the most up-to-date fairy tale news, from new releases to other events and items of interest."


I totally recommend visiting Heidi's Blog at:  http://surlalunefairytales.blogspot.com/ . Your brief visit will lead you to "follow blog" as it is extremely one full of knowledge, opinions, brief summaries, and beautiful
art-work renditions of Book Covers.

I know if you take a brief  moment at admiring Heidi's Blog, that brief moment will turn into hours. I know that I will be following and will definately be visiting her blog from now on.

Again, here is her Blog link: http://surlalunefairytales.blogspot.com/

I hope you find it enjoyable and delightful as much as I did. And, kudos to Heidi Ann for an outstanding informative, inspiring blog.
Hugs!
