Remembering 9-11 ... NEVER forget

My heart is heavy with the loss and devastation this day brings to mind but I want all people to remember ...


From this devastation and loss of lives, they made a memorial so no one in this country would forget the horror that happened that day 






This one is about 3 minutes long





Click on the above link and it's about 9 minutes long and shows from start to finish

Winter Birds Junk Journal page

I love cardinals and doing this page made me so happy ... oh the card under the 755 claim check pulls out and you can write a bit of something on the back ... the always remember cardinal has writing space on the back also ...

More cards with a bit of twist

These are just a bit different from the normal cards as you can see they open with a bit of a twist ... they were fun to work on since they were a bit different ...

More Mixed Media but more paper

this was to show I could do something more like paperwork and possibly like an altered book or art or junk journal

Sunday, July 19, 2020

Ok, how about some mixed media

this one was using lots of gesso, inks, modeling paste, stencils, lace, napkins, digital images, and other stuff I had in my stash ...

Another on Vintage Women

I used the same digital image that I did the boxes with but made it into a Junk Journal ... from scraps and stuff I have had in my stash for years ...



this inside lady image has been in my stash for so long just waiting for the right thing and I finally found it ... 


a lot of the small images and butterflies are digital images some I have had some are new from Etsy shops and tickets are from Tim Holtz collections ...

Small boxes to hold Ephemera

These are from Bohemian Crafting Etsy Shop also ... they are about 3 3/4" x 5 1/2" printed on heavy cardstock the cutout and assembled ... they are in the matchbox style but opens only at one end ... I chose not to put pulls on mine I like the cleaner look but after I load them up I may decide to put pulls of some kind on them ...

Large Ephemera keeper for me

This I saw on a YouTube and thought I really need that and since I use to make handmade books I had all the stuff I needed to make it ... I used Tim Holtz cardstock and has 2 signatures of the same cardstock ...


looking down into it ... see how messy my desk is ... 😁

this is with the front cover pulled out


one page of pockets made from vellum


another page of pockets made from vellum ... the book is 9" tall and uses 2 12x12 cardstock with a 2" matboard spine ... there are 24 pages and the front and back cover both open up to 2 big pockets each ... lots of room for paper ephemera and I am about to make a 2nd one since I have run out of space in the first .... yep way to much stuff

June Junk Journal page


Another Junk Journal page ... the theme on this one is "As Time goes By" ... I watched a YouTube from Bohemian Crafting and she did this swing closure, I loved the idea so much I had to try it out ... I think I will be using this quite a bit ... oh the images are from her Etsy shop ...
