Happy Holidays to all…

Hi Everyone!  I have not posted in a long, long time, I know, but I have been pretty busy with work and found myself in a creative slump.  :( 

As I was pondering getting my hands into something, my creative juices started flowing and I remembered I purchased Mary Green’s “Vintage Glue Book” class and decided to try a glue book.  I have not had this much fun in quite a while…and quite a mess too!  Because the holiday season is upon us, I decided to do a Santa book as my first attempt.  I used everything I could get my hands on for this one…scrapbook papers I had been collecting for a while (years), images from the wonderful Graphics Fairy, Green Paper Packages and a wealth of other sites.  I am actually thinking of sending this as a card/gift to someone I love.  Please enjoy the pics!

I reserved the last page to be inscribed with a message to the recipient.

The absolute best thing was getting those old creative juices flowing again.  I am going to be busy with work for the next several months starting, so I going to apologize in advance for not posting more frequently.  What have you been up to?  Got any great holiday projects in the making?  I’d love to see it!  Send me your link!
If you have not joined Mary’s class at Green Paper Packages, do so!  It’s a great way to use your scraps.  In addition, her class offerings are growing.  I have just gotten involved with another class “Collage Basics”.  Even if you have done collage before, it’s still of benefit and her images are fabulous!

    I totally understand being in creative slumps, NOT a fun place to be. Anyways, when you have time, pop on over to my blog, I stepped outta my comfort zone...seeking creativity.

  2. Your book is so cute that I just signed up for the class. I took the Collage Coterie class but haven't done a lot since.
