Okay so here we go....My first blog posting.
I set this account up 6 months ago( More on that in awhile) and I am finally ready to do this.
As far back as I can remember I have always been doing some sort of crafting/art. I used to sit in my front lawn when I was younger and draw. I would have the whole setup, I'd get a lawn chair, my drawing pad, crayons, and a some kool aide. I would sit and draw what I saw in front of me or in my imagination. I was not the greatest artist but there was something about the processes that I loved and still do. I am a lifetime member of the Girl Scouts and loved when we would do crafts weather it was boon doogle or making Photo albums. I loved art class in School but never took an art class after 8th grade (this I wish I would have done differently). In my adult life as a crafter I have done everything from Quilling to Painting to Traditional Scrapbooking. All this has lead me to the here and now and why I wanted to start this blog 6 months ago. After all these years of doing all of these crafts I found that I have ALOT of stuff, so after reading other peoples blogs and a few books on Altered art, ATC's, and other great projects, I decided to give my self a challenge...
BUY NOTHING FOR MONTHS (Accept adhesives).
I wanted to see what my imagination and creativity could come up with. And I have to say I have really surprised myself. In future posting I will share what I came up with and would love your comments.
